How to Get Your Board on Board with a Capital Campaign

Board support can strengthen a capital campaign from the start, but board members often have questions, concerns, or misconceptions about what a campaign will require of them. Addressing those concerns early can build trust and prevent confusion later.

In this free Ready to Raise Session, campaign expert Sarah Plimpton will explain how to introduce a campaign to your board and prepare members for meaningful participation. You’ll learn how to clarify expectations, respond to common concerns, and help board members understand the important role they can play.

This session is ideal for nonprofit leaders who are considering a campaign or beginning conversations with their boards. You’ll leave with practical ways to build understanding, increase engagement, and create stronger alignment between staff and board members.

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 Sarah your capital campaign questions.
