Welcome To The Most Comprehensive Website on Capital Campaigns
This website includes samples materials, training guides and articles all related to managing
a successful capital campaign. This website is dedicated to the discussion of capital campaign
fundraising for non-profit organizations.
Capital campaigns are generally considered to be fundraising efforts for major capital purposes,
usually to the tune of millions of dollars and, on occasion, a billion dollars or more.
While the site was originated by Capital Quest, Inc., a capital
campaign consulting firm, in 1997 as a marketing vehicle for the firm, the site has grown to
be one of the internet’s most definitive sites for information on capital campaigns.
In 2006, Capital Quest opened the site to outside writers who have interesting ideas about capital campaigns. The mission of
this website has changed – from a marketing site for the company – to an educational site
for staff and volunteers to learn about capital campaigns. It also serves as an open vehicle
for those who have interesting ideas or concepts about capital campaigns that they’d like to
share with the world.

them, this would be just another basic consulting site!
