Creative Strategies for Philanthropic Success

Strategic Planning

Strategic planning and preparation position the institution to achieve its maximum fund raising potential.

To support this process, Ronald LaRose & Associates:

CONDUCTS feasibility studies and audits

GUIDES the development of internal support systems

CREATES communications plans, and

PROVIDES the necessary policies for development efforts.

The firm works with the institution to develop short- and long-range objectives and translate them into month-by-month work plans to measure progress.  

The firm also has an expertise in developing business plans that provide donor prospects with the needed programmatic and financial information that confirm the viability of  the institution. These plans demonstrate the impact of the proposed program and confirm that they are worthy of support.

Our objective is to create a compelling institutional case for support. We use cultivation interviews to test plans, and then incorporate respondents' reactions and suggestions.

Ronald LaRose & Associates develops the best possible case for donor support by focusing on what the client does best. We then develop appropriate materials that document the institution's needs in the most appealing fashion for a donor prospect's thoughtful consideration. The potential donor's interests are linked to the institution's work in the strongest possible way.
