Abstract
This project seeks to establish an Alumni Program for the Chugach Heritage Foundation. Chugach Heritage Foundation is a nonprofit arm of Chugach Alaska Corporation, an Alaska Native Corporation established under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. Chugach Heritage Foundation provides scholarships and cultural education opportunities for eligible individuals. This project serves two significant purposes; the first is to allow program alums to remain engaged with the Chugach Heritage Foundation and to encourage giving back to the foundation. The second is to support CHF’s status as an operating foundation, which holds tax benefits CHF would greatly benefit from. Through this project, I intend to demonstrate mastery of several project management areas during the planning and execution of this project, including communication management, stakeholder management, and project risk management. These will be measured and reported on to demonstrate that I exceeded what is required of typical project completion. In addition to planning and executing this project, I will also produce a guide that contributes to the Project Management Body of Knowledge. This contribution will cover how to establish alum programs for scholarship administering nonprofits.
