Navigating the Road to Major Campaign Success
Are you fully prepared for your next capital, endowment or capacity campaign? This half-day workshop will provide a comprehensive overview of everything you need to know before you embark on your major campaign. A successful campaign can be transformative for a nonprofit organization. Funds raised often increase an agency’s mission impact in exponential ways. But a campaign is also a major undertaking and requires an investment of valuable resources – including the time, treasure and talents of leadership, staff and volunteers. Together, we will discuss the planning and preparation stages before launching a campaign as well as the management of the initiative. Whether your organization is focused on capital, endowment, sustainable funding or a comprehensive campaign, understanding the essential elements and impact on the organization will help set your team up for success.
