One of the most important initiatives any organization can undertake is a capital or endowment campaign. A campaign not only serves to solicit needed funds, it should also provide a framework for increased public awareness, a heightened commitment to the institution's goals on the part of staff, volunteers, and donors, and an excellent opportunity to strengthen board and committee structures.

From our experience in managing campaigns, WPO has devoted extensive time and expertise to develop and refine all the "tools" necessary for a successful campaign effort.  We have also developed specialized materials covering every aspect of capital and endowment development activities including:

• Leadership Awareness / Publicity Programs

• Campaign Structure and Organization

• Board Development and Utilization

• Prospective Donor Identification and Research

• Planned Giving / Estate Gifts Programs
