Campaign Planning & Management
Campaigns are the fuel for institutional transformation, providing the vital resources that actualize vision into reality – if planned and executed well. From feasibility studies that provide insights into topics from operational readiness to the affinity of prospective donors, to taking on the incremental work of managing campaign volunteers or the creation of transparent campaign progress reports, McDermott Philanthropy can be a trusted partner through every phase of campaign planning and execution.
