From crisis to opportunity...
When an international ministry focused on education first hired DSG, they had $20K in debt, a donor file of 200 contacts and an operating budget of $400K. After just three years of working with us to develop and implement a full-scale integrated donor cultivation and marketing strategy, they had over 2,500 donors and a budget of over $2,000,000.
Taking a ministry to the next level...
This ministry was doing amazing work in a country very few thought could harbor fruitful ministry. Their budget was just under $1,000,000 - but they new that if they had more resources, their impact in the region could significantly increase. After working with DSG for five years, their ministry budget is now over $4,000,000 and continues to grow. A recent development tour coordinated and managed by DSG worked in conjunction with the ministry’s “Impact Plan” to garner over $1,000,000 in gifts and pledges.
Raising funds for a capital campaign...
A ministry serving local “poor & needy” had recently borrowed funds to purchase their new building, which greatly increased their ability to serve the community. They hired DSG to help galvanize the funds to pay off the $2,500,000 note. In just 90 days the DSG team was able build a strategy and develop the materials that resulted in a successful capital campaign.
Putting a new ministry on the map...
When a start-up ministry approached DSG to work with them, they had no strategy, no donor file, a miniscule budget and were virtually unknown in the community. DSG worked with them to establish a strategy, realize a growing donor file and increase the budget to $600,000 in under a year. In addition to bringing on an increasing number of smaller monthly donors, DSG has help secure multiple major donor gifts and foundation grants, as well as put together a major donor event attended by over 150 of the city’s key community and business leaders.
