All in Campaign Readiness
CampaignCounsel.org has developed a bank of free resources to assist anyone exploring or undertaking a capital campaign. We hope executive directors and development directors will use the information to answer their own questions and prepare their boards for the capital campaign planning effort. From free in-person workshops to financial formulas to sample materials, these resources will help you grow in your capital campaign confidence and ability.
Capital campaign planning is a new challenge to many nonprofits. Where do you begin your capital campaign plan? First, find out if your organization is ready to take on the challenge by addressing these 7 steps.
In one of our recent workshops, a participant asked a great question: “What do you see as being the biggest indicators of capital campaign success or failure?” Money is almost always an issue, but it’s not the best indicator of your campaign’s potential success or failure. The best indicator of capital campaign success or failure is found within the leadership of your administrators and board of directors.
CampaignCounsel.org offers a no-fee, no obligation Capital Campaign Workshop. This workshop is conducted at your location or through a virtual meeting for your board members, key volunteers and senior staff. Some organizations have even invited community leaders and major-gift donors to the workshop as a cultivation and education activity.
