Fundraising
Strategy & Planning

RA takes the time to understand and evaluate your assets, plans, and prospective support, all of which provide the essential foundation for successful fundraising and advancement endeavors.

Advancement Program Assessment
Our objective analysis of development resources, programming, and infrastructure provides specific recommendations to improve productivity, effectiveness, and constituent engagement.

Advancement Counsel
Following an Advancement Program Assessment, RA may identify specific areas that need ongoing support and counsel. Our team will work with the organization’s leadership, development staff, and board/volunteers to enhance their performance and bolster best practices. At the onset of these activities, we identify Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to be accomplished over a specified period and design a strategy to achieve those objectives.

Pre-Campaign Study
Whether raising smaller amounts or significant funds for capital needs, or you are funding an endowment, a Pre-Campaign Study provides the crucial roadmap to success. After collecting detailed information in a variety of ways, RA delivers thoroughly analyzed quantitative and qualitative data which are vital to making critical and informed decisions to launch successful fundraising efforts.

Strategic Planning
Available through our strategic partnership with Meitler.

"Ruotolo Associates did an excellent job in the study process so that we could make an informed decision on whether or not to move forward with the campaign. As a result of the study, the Board of Trustees felt confident that we could run a campaign with a goal of between $10 and $12 million dollars."
