Do you know how to raise substantial funds
to pay for large projects?

Whether you need to construct a new building, renovate an existing one, or complete major repairs,
a capital fundraising campaign can help you achieve your goals.

-Nonprofits rely on capital campaigns to pay for large projects when there’s no money budgeted to cover expenses.

The length of capital campaigns varies, depending on the amount you need to raise, and how much time it will take.

-For example, capital campaigns to raise funds for multi-million-dollar projects may last several years, while capital campaigns to raise funds for a project that costs $85,000 may last a year or less.

Because planning, implementing, and tracking a capital campaign is a complex process, you’ll need to start by learning the fundamentals.
