How to Create a Capital Campaign Budget

A realistic campaign budget accounts for far more than consulting fees, events, and printed materials. Staffing, technology, communications, donor recognition, and other expenses can add up over the full life of a campaign.

In this free Ready to Raise Session, campaign expert Dedee Wilner-Nugent will walk you through the costs your organization should consider when preparing a capital campaign budget. You’ll learn how to identify direct and indirect expenses, plan for costs across each phase, and connect your campaign budget to your goal and timeline.

This session is ideal for nonprofit leaders who are developing a campaign plan or trying to understand what their campaign may cost. You’ll leave with a more complete picture of the resources required and a practical starting point for building your own budget.

The 60-minute session will include 30 minutes of instruction followed by a generous 30 minutes of live Q&A, giving you plenty of time to ask Dedee your capital campaign questions.
