Semple Bixel Fundraising Consultants Provide Feasibility Assessments For Non-Profit Capital Campaigns

Products & Services

Capital Campaigns


SBA develops a plan tailored to your special needs.
We direct all aspects of your capital fundraising program,
prepare materials, help identify, research and recruit prospects, develop a cultivation program, coach
volunteers on solicitation techniques, establish gift
recording and acknowledgement protocols.

Feasibility and Implementation Studies


Capital campaigns are preceded by a feasibility study.
The study determines:

   • How much money you can raise
   • Who will lead your campaign
   • If your capital needs are compelling
   • When you should launch your campaign

An implementation study continually identifies and culti-
vates prospective donors.
The study yields new prospects, promotes your project, recruits additional leadership and grows your gift base.

SBA works with key volunteers to establish your vision. We use a team approach, with up to four experienced consultants conducting interviews. Our team meets to analyze results, verify data, and develop conclusions that lead to clear cut recommendations. 

Annual Campaigns


SBA directs the planning process, builds your annual
giving campaign and teaches your staff best practices in fundraising. Working together with our clients, we create a calendar of activities, a budget and fundraising materials, groom volunteers and steward donors.

Development Planning


SBA’s Resource Development Assessment© (RDA) is unique
in the consulting business. We work with a small study group composed of key staff and volunteers to review your current development program and together create a plan you can call your own.

Educational Workshops and Training Sessions


SBA’s hands-on, participating workshops gives your board, staff and volunteers the confidence and skills needed to be effective fundraisers. Our workshops and trainings include
but are not limited to: Philanthropy in America Today, Cornerstones of a Capital Campaign, Prospect Research, Planned Giving and Solicitation Training.
