Capital Campaign Readiness Studies and Campaign Direction

You’ve already decided that you need to do a project. But how are you going to pay for it? Our campaign readiness studies will give you a plan to make your project a reality. We won’t tell you how you can’t do it. We’ll tell you how you can.

Campaign services include needs assessment, grant research, interviews, case statement development, plan creation and board training, as well as campaign direction. Studies are designed to be either in-person, by Zoom, or hybrid.
