Donor Engagement The school already prioritizes donor and alumni relations and uses events to fund tuition and other expenses. This presents an opportunity to professionalize the donor pipeline with targeted campaigns, a major gifts program, and recurring giving strategies, supported by donor segmentation, stewardship, and analytics to lift gift revenue and retention. Offer services such as CRM optimization, event operations, and fundraising analytics.
Capital Campaigns Wellness Center expansion and athletics facility investments indicate appeal for capital campaigns. Propose capital campaign planning, feasibility studies, naming rights and tiered sponsorship packages, and partnerships with equipment providers. Additional offerings could include project management, construction fundraising, and donor recognition strategies to accelerate large gifts.
Athletics Partnerships Athletics activity is active, with coaching changes and equipment partnerships already in play. There is potential to monetize sponsorships for teams, facilities, and camps, plus booster program support and sponsor-facing marketing materials. We can offer sponsorship program design, digital asset creation, and alignment with vendors and athletic events.
Digital Fundraising The technology stack suggests room to enhance online fundraising. Propose website modernization, a donor portal, event microsites, mobile optimization, and integrated analytics, along with CRM and marketing automation integrations to improve event registration, donor communications, and downline engagement.
Growth & Partnerships With a sizeable operating footprint and openness to partnerships evidenced by recent collaborations, there are opportunities for local media partnerships, grant collaborations, and corporate sponsorships. Target local businesses, church and Lutheran networks, and private foundations to broaden the donor base and build multi-year sponsorships.
