Annual Fund Campaign Services
Raise more money, more efficiently!
Are you a school leader trying to find a way to increase your annual fund dollars while spending less money and time doing it?
DonorUp provides a Managed Annual Fund Campaign package that is tailored for schools. We have an efficient process that utilizes experts in the field combined with volume savings because we are working with so many different schools.
Funding is tight—time is tighter. Providing a great education for your students consumes enormous resources. Effective school leadership requires specialized skills and abilities that you have honed over time. Similarly, excellence in fundraising requires the development of habits and skills that are hard to find and are expensive.
This package is designed to accomplish three vital goals:
- Achieve your immediate annual fund goal
- Identify and cultivate those in your constituency who may become major donors
- Establish a program for recurring donations in increasing amounts
The DonorUp Managed Annual Fund Campaign includes:
- Fundraising Rubric Assessment — First, we assess your fundraising readiness and develop a plan for your success over the next year.
- Database Validation — We evaluate your donor database and launch a database campaign to follow up with all of your families to ensure all the information is complete an up-to-date.
- Calendar Development — We review your annual school calendar with you to identify opportunities to connect with and engage donors.
- Team Development & Training — We identify gaps where your team of staff and volunteers may need additional training and help you prepare them for the campaign.
- Message & Vision — We ensure you have a clear, compelling vision by collaborating with you to craft an effective fundraising message.
- Project Management — Our team will manage the campaign, providing regular communication with you and making sure the fundraising plan is executed with precision.
- Marketing Materials — Choose your annual fund mailing materials from our collection of professionally designed templates. We'll work with you to tailor the message for your school.
- Coaching & Consulting — Throughout the year, we provide coaching to help your team develop a consultative relationship with major donors in your school.
If you're not sure whether a managed campaign is right for your school, start with our Fundraising Rubric Assessment . You'll learn about your school's strengths and weaknesses and how you measure up against other schools and established benchmarks.
