2026 State of Capital Campaigns - New Research
Steven Shattuck

In the world of fundraising, myths often shroud the truth, creating unnecessary barriers and misconceptions.

Capital campaigns are no exception.

In this session, we’ll sift through the most interesting insights gleaned from the annual State of Capital Campaigns Benchmark Report from Capital Campaign Pro. You’ll come away with benchmarks with which to compare your organization.

Learning Objectives:

• What are the primary drivers of capital campaigns?
• Are capital campaigns typically successful?
• How is the annual fund impacted both during and after a capital campaign?
• Does conducting a feasibility study matter?
• How are (and aren't) Christian organization campaigns different from the rest of the sector?
