Nonprofit Capital Campaign Surpasses Goal

Non-profit capital campaign celebration

Congratulations to our client His Hands Free Clinic for completing the Great Need. Great Care nonprofit capital campaign. His Hands Free Clinic surpassed its $1.5 million capital campaign goal by raising over $1.84 million! The clinic announced its campaign success during a celebration event on Sept. 20, 2022. The campaign has allowed the clinic to move into a larger facility and increase no-cost medical care services to those without health insurance in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and surrounding areas.

AMPERAGE Marketing & Fundraising has consulted on over 80 nonprofit capital campaigns throughout the Midwest, and our fundraising consultants each have more than 20 years’ fundraising experience working with nonprofit organizations.
