Capital Campaign Training. Get it Right From the Start
(1 DAY)
-
Considering and conducting a capital campaign.
Most charitable organizations reach a point where someone around the table –fund development staff, a member of the Board, an ambitious ED – says “We should run a capital campaign.”
Most in that meeting will have only a vague idea of the challenges or complexity of a successful campaign. What happens next is critical. very often, organizations plunge in, not knowing what it takes. In their enthusiasm, they usually make early decisions that undermine their success from the beginning.
The penalties for a failed campaign are severe, from internal conflict to public embarrassment and even financial crisis.
The rewards of a sound campaign are profound and can be transformative. But running such a campaign is a choice.
This workshop will orient you to what it takes to succeed in a capital campaign, and what is within reach if the organization prepares well, makes clear-eyed judgements, invests in the process and commits to the fundamentals.
Maybe a capital campaign is exactly what you need. Come and find out.
