“Consultants in Association Philanthropy’s (CAP’s) philanthropic market study led to significant enhancements to our professional society’s fundraising program.  With CAP’s assistance, we were able to secure board support to begin our first-ever major gifts campaign, including approval to hire a development professional to manage the fundraising effort. The board also created an endowment fund and then “seeded” it with reserve funds to help create campaign confidence and momentum. Best of all, we now have volunteer leaders actively committed to assuring the campaign’s success.  In short, CAP’s expertise and recommendations are invaluable as we now move forward with this most worthwhile project.”
