The study revealed that Dodge had the capacity to launch a much larger campaign than leaders had thought possible.
The Results
Within a year, the campaign achieved more than 70% of its $40 million goal and inspired the largest gifts in the organization’s history. In the Fall of 2020, the campaign was announced at the annual Night For Nature gala attended virtually by more than 600 people. The campaign is currently at 85% of its goal and on track to close in 2023.
