FUNDRAISING SOLUTIONS

Explore the range of ways that we partner with tax-exempt and social enterprise organizations to help them reach their goals.

 

Your nonprofit is unique.

Cogeo undertands that every organization has a unique mission, structure, team, community, budget, and fundraising need.

That’s why we’ve created a range of ways for organizations to learn our methods and partner with Cogeo.

Whether your organization is just starting its fundraising journey on a limited budget, launching its first capital campaign, or anything in between, Cogeo can offer you the guidance and support you need to be successful.

 
 

Which option is right for your organization?

We’ve answered the following questions to help you know where to start.

 

  • If you’re raising funds for your programs or operations, we would first and foremost recommend becoming a client partner. This level of service has the highest return-on-investment and unlocks sustainable fundraising structures. Our educational and tactical fundraising programs are also a great option for those looking for a free or affordable way to launch a campaign.

    For those considering a capital project — because of the scope of work and amount of advice that goes into a capital campaign, becoming a client partner is the best and most appropriate option.

  • $50,000+: If you have an annual budget allotted to fundraising and development, you are eligible for and should highly consider becoming a client partner.

    Alternatively, if you are seeking specific additional operational support for your development operations, you should consider our Back Office service.

    $5,000-$49,999: You may still be eligible for the client partner option depending on your project. However, our fundriaisng programs are also a great fit.

    $0-$4,999: We have options for you! Our Starter Program is a completely free way to launch a campaign. We also always have free resources available.

  • If your entire organization, including your board, is dedicated to a project or goal and are willing to invest in your fundraising efforts, you should absolutely consider the client partner option first.

    If you just need more people power in order to realize your organization’s full fundraising potential, our Back Office service could be a great fit.

    If you or your team is committed to your fundraising journey, but lack the funding or support from your board, our fundraisng programs are a good place to start.

    If you’re simply curious about fundraising and want to learn more, check out our free resources!

  • If your development department or Executive Director would benefit from additional support for your fundraising efforts and advice, our client partner option allows for unlimited consulting advice and full access to our Back Office team — a behind-the-scenes team of researchers, writers, designers, event coordinators, and more.

    If your development department or Executive Director only needs more people power to fully realize your fundraising potential, our Back Office service option could be just what your organization needs to expand and scale.

    Our Starter Plus+ fundraising program offers some consulting advice and support and tactical help on a monthly basis.

    Our Starter fundraising program is a completely independent option with no support services.
