It's true that you need to approach the alumni on items NOT dealing specifically with $$$. This is a major idea that I promote when giving presentations on how to start alumni associations.
If you think about it. we're always being hit up for money...whether it's an ad on TV, a phone call @ dinnertime or a mail solicitation, everybody wants our cash.
The one thing an alum can offer that other people can't, though, is EXPERIENCE. We've "been there and done that". Alums can look at what's happening in a chapter through the eyes of an undergrad with real world knowledge.
Good luck to GLZ - Xalepa Ta Kala!
