Catholic Charities Diocese of Wichita serves the community in Kansas through a variety of ministries, including adult day services. This important ministry served 110 participants, but the program was near capacity. The main facility was already full and an additional facility was also filling up. Catholic Charities leadership knew it was time to more fully meet the needs of this ministry. In partnership with the Steier Group, Catholic Charities Diocese of Wichita launched a capital campaign to renovate its new facility. The new facility wil include expanded nursing facilities, bathrooms and changing areas and a covered entrance. A larger communal area will allow for all participants to now eat meals together. The communication materials proved vital to the success of the campaign, helping to inform the community about this relatively unknown ministry. Thanks to increased knowledge and strong support from the community, the campaign exceeded goal. The $5.9 million raised will allow the adult day services community to unite under one roof in a beautiful, renovated facility.
“Two areas in particular where we benefited the most from working with the Steier Group was in the design and creation of a case statement booklet and the research and writing of grant applications to foundations. The graphic artist on staff with the Steier Group designed and redesigned campaign materials until they were exactly to our liking. Additionally, their grant writer researched and identified a lengthy list of foundations who might support the project and prepared customized grant applications for us to submit to each. The support we received from foundations comprised nearly 50% of the total funds raised for our project.”

We founded our firm on the belief that the best capital campaign is one that is customized and executed by one team, under one roof. When you hire the Steier Group, you eliminate the need to contract with additional vendors for services like copywriting, graphic design, grant writing, video production, website development or wealth screening. We reject the one-size-fits-all approach to fundraising and embrace every opportunity to design a capital campaign plan that will maximize our client’s fundraising potential.
