Feasibility Studies

• What is a reasonable dollar goal and time frame for our capital campaign?
• Do we have prospective donors to fund featured campaign projects and initiatives?
• Are our capital campaign projects and featured initiatives clearly defined, compelling, and urgent to prospective donors?
• Are there board members and other volunteers willing to lead our capital campaign?
• Do we have fundraising and other external relations staff members ready to work with volunteers to conduct a successful campaign?
• How might economic conditions—local, regional, and national—affect our capital campaign?
• What effects might other campaigns—current and planned—have on our campaign?

• Conducting confidential interviews with prospective campaign donors and volunteer leaders.
• Working with your organization’s leadership on defining and articulating potential campaign projects and featured initiatives so that they are understandable, compelling, and urgent.
• Assessing the strengths and weaknesses of your fundraising and external relations programs.
