Raftr

Founded in 2018 by a team of higher education and technology veterans, Raftr's insights platform reimagines digital communities so every member can connect and thrive. Raftr is best equipped to provide community to students and insights to administrators because its architecture is uniquely and solely based on the concept of communities and micro-communities, creating safe, relevant, and instant two-way communication that members expect in today's world. This network of vibrant interconnecting communities is an authentic and seamless digital representation of the real-life social experience of living and learning through formal and informal groups across your university, organization, and club. Using Raftr's platform, university administrators have found that they can increase the yield rate of family enrollment, achieve higher retention rates for enrolled students, and improve both giving and participation rates as students transition into their next chapter as alumni after graduating. For students, digital micro-communities remove barriers of distance and time, allowing them to discover people with common interests and connect to resources much more rapidly, so that they feel included and develop a powerful sense of attachment and belonging to their school. The high-growth startup is currently serving campuses across the United States and in six countries.
