Comprehensive Campaign Services for Nonprofit Organizations
Comprehensive Campaign Services for Nonprofit Organizations
Comprehensive campaigns allow nonprofit organizations to align multiple channels of funding priorities under a single campaign. This enables them to maximize funding in an outcome-focused, funder-centric manner. The key to success is having a trusted partner to help you develop and execute the right alignment and strategy for the campaign.
Convergent Nonprofit Solutions is that trusted partner. We manage comprehensive campaigns for all types of nonprofit organizations with goals of all sizes, raising hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients. With our help, your organization can achieve sustainable, long-term funding that fuels your mission-critical activities for years to come.
Why Comprehensive Campaigns Work
Most nonprofits approach fundraising through various targeted solicitation-driven campaigns, such as annual, year-end, and capital campaigns. These structures are great for engaging funders to meet a very specific, targeted funding need. In some cases, these approaches create restricted funds that are exclusively directed toward the initiative being funded.
If you’re looking to align multiple funding appeals under one cohesive vision, a comprehensive campaign is the right option for you. These campaigns enable you to align all your funding priorities under a single campaign, maximizing funding in an outcome-focused, donor-centric manner. Instead of presenting funders with a series of potentially transactional interactions, you’ll provide them with a valuable opportunity to create transformational impact.
Our Comprehensive Campaign Process
While standalone campaigns are easier to execute, the power of building on an organizationally aligned, multiyear vision for increased outcomes and impact cannot be overstated. When you partner with Convergent to execute a comprehensive campaign, we’ll go through the following process together:
Development Audit
Convergent provides a clear, objective assessment of your current fundraising efforts to evaluate whether your organization is ready to achieve its fundraising goals. Our audits include a strategic roadmap and actionable recommendations to get you on the right track.
Feasibility Study
A professionally conducted feasibility study is a critical step toward launching a successful campaign. We gather candid insights from funders, stakeholders, and community leaders to assess your growth potential for annual funding and endowment.
Campaign Management
After your feasibility study and development audit, we guide your board members, staff, and volunteers through executing the next steps of your comprehensive campaign. Based on your preference, we can work with you on-site or remotely to collaborate on implementation, address questions, and troubleshoot issues.
Let’s build your campaign — and your community’s future.

Testimonials
Andrew Keenan
“The fact that Convergent could make the ask was huge. Working with our director and joining solicitations made me a better fundraiser – that was the right formula for us. Moving forward I feel much more confident in making asks and telling our story, and that is going to make us more sustainable in the long run.”
Andrew Keenan, Executive Director Callanwolde Fine Arts Center | Atlanta, GA
Lisa Zaken
“In the span of six short months, our Board went from being nervous about the initial campaign investment to being ecstatic with the attainment of our goal, and our subsequent stretch goal! Convergent can do it like no other. Their system is rigorous and extremely effective. We have nothing but great things to say about this organization!”
Lisa Zaken, President & CEO Leadership Gwinnett | Duluth, GA
Dion Davis
“The strategy and support offered by Convergent helped our Board expand its vision for the Foundation, which in turn helped to refocus and redefine our organization's impact in our community. The methodology behind their capital campaign process not only helps to raise more money in the immediate, but it also builds best practices for long-term investor relations and lays groundwork for the success of future funding initiatives.”
Dion Davis, Former Executive Director Jekyll Island Foundation | Jekyll Island, GA

“I loved working with Convergent. I never could have done what Convergent did. If you want to run a successful campaign, you need to bring in that expertise. Thanks to their help, our capital campaign really took us to the next level within our community.”

Phillip Aldridge
“I wanted to thank everyone from the Convergent team who assisted in our campaign. Of the varying ways the campaign’s success may be measured, I count it a blessing that we achieved what we did. Not just the funds committed but the contacts made, the level of exposure reached, and ultimately, what the funds and exposure mean in terms of how many more we now serve as a result. My thanks is in recognition and appreciation for Convergent serving as our fundraising counsel and for the patience and professionalism demonstrated throughout the campaign. You were a godsend for Valley Healthcare!”
Phillip Aldridge, Board Chair Valley Healthcare System | Colombus, GA
Jeff Taylor
“Early in our campaign feasibility study it became apparent that we lacked the Asking Rights necessary to conduct a capital campaign. As a result, Convergent’s knowledgeable consultants prepared an extensive plan of action that is a road map for growing our awareness and philanthropy. A successful capital campaign will be possible in the near future. Their entrepreneurial approach will definitely get you where you want to go.”
Jeff Taylor, CEO MedCura Health, formerly Oakhurst Medical Center | Stone Mountain, GA
