01Project overview
One platform. An entire alumni network.
MEFGAA — the alumni association of the Forest College and Research Institute, Mettupalayam — connects 738+ forestry professionals spanning 34 graduation batches from 1985 to 2019.
Before mefgaa.in, the association ran on scattered WhatsApp groups and spreadsheets. Membership records, payments, voting, and event coordination lived in different places — slow, error-prone, and hard to scale.
Eco Biznfc designed and built the unified platform that's now live at mefgaa.in — a member directory, payment system, voting tool, Hall of Fame, and event hub in one place.
The brand identity reflects the institute's legacy — a forest-green palette with warm amber accents, paired with a clean members-first UI.
02What we built
Six modules. One alumni home.
Everything the MEFGAA committee needs to run the association — and everything alumni need to stay connected.
Alumni Directory
Searchable member registry spanning 34 graduation batches from 1985 to 2019, with batch and role filters.
