Capital Campaigns: Strategies That Work (Aspen's Fund Raising Series for the 21st Century)

This text is written for development directors, executive directors, and board members of small to mid-sized community based non-profit organizations that are considering a capital campaign. Drawing on first hand accounts by professionals in the field, the authors answer a variety of fund-raising questions, from how to get started to the planning of campaign celebrations, and share the concepts, practices, and ideas that make capital campaigns succeed. They stress both the personal growth and challenges inherent in campaigns as well as the obvious financial rewards, where staff, volunteers, and donors work together to help worthy organizations accomplish community goals.
