Overview

Triumph Treatment Services reached out to engage with ALC because they had a new CEO, new development director, and a board that didn’t know the depth and breadth of past fundraising. 

Challenge/Goal

They had big questions about where to go next, who to call, how to ask, and how to fundraise more efficiently to better serve our community. 

Strategy

Utilizing my unique 4-month revamp program, I trained the board of directors on Fundraising 101, advised on new board members who would be tactical partners, coached the Executive Director and new Development Director on strategic fundraising goals and outreach, and reviewed all past fundraising efforts and donors to guide them in new donor introductions and, notably, some specific reintroductions to past supporters. 

Results

The results of our four months working together are noteworthy. They secured a $1 million dollar donation from a brand-new donor who trusted my guidance on the project, they revamped their board, they successfully launched a capital campaign, and gained significant traction with both new and returning donors, and they brought on over 20 new major donors through my network. I brought to the table actionable steps for their organization to take to start a robust development program. I challenged their team to focus on priorities and develop clear communication. My education program for the entire team was well-received and garnered great results.
