School Associations Executives are charged with the responsibility of overseeing the association they represent and carter for the welfare of the students under the association. To accomplish this, effective communication within the EXCOS and with the other members is very important. Already, we’ve seen the different ways bulk SMS can help accomplish this. See here.

Another aspect that can’t be neglected in any association of youths, associations in tertiary institutions especially is social gatherings. In school associations, these may be in form of small get-togethers, send off parties for graduating students, organized picnics or welcome parties for new students.

To organize such parties or gatherings, most times monetary contributions are made to make the day a bomb. Dues are shared among the students of the association, to use for gifts (for outgoing students), get sufficient foods and drinks and get a suitable place for the occasion. Reminders are needed to get everyone to pay their due. See here how bulk SMS can be used for dues/fees payment reminders.

Additionally, timely text messages need to be sent to remind all students of the association of the date and time for the social gathering. If there is a chosen dress code or color code, this can also be communicated through bulk SMS.
