Our fundraising services range from a $349 self-guided Masterclass to annual engagements of $100,000 or more. We'll recommend the option that fits your goals, team, and budget.

Yes. Every strategy we build is designed around your systems and capacity, and we'll never recommend a strategy your team can’t act on or afford.

We don't run paid media ourselves, but we work with trusted partners who specialize in it. Together, we make sure every channel supports your overall fundraising strategy and messaging.

The Masterclass is an affordable, self-guided course that teaches you CauseMic's strategic planning framework so you can lead the process yourself. It's best suited for smaller, less complex organizations. Our Actionable Fundraising Strategy workshops bring in two experienced CauseMic strategists to guide larger, more complex teams. You'll leave with a custom one-page strategic plan and a prioritized project backlog.

Our workshops are built to bring everyone into the planning process, from the board to frontline staff, so the final plan has buy-in from the start. For boards specifically, our Board Governance & Fundraising Retreat helps members clarify their role and leave with a plan they own.

We help nonprofits build sustainable revenue streams like monthly giving, major and legacy giving, and corporate partnerships. Our program development toolkits give you the messaging, launch plan, and communications calendar to start a new program or build on what you have already.
