Capital Campaign Planning & Management
Myers Park Presbyterian Church (MPPC) came to Vandever Batten in the midst of an unsuccessful engagement with a national
consultant. Vandever Batten stepped in and completed a campaign planning study. Armed with knowledge gleaned from the study,
Myers Park Presbyterian Church asked Vandever Batten to manage their $30 million campaign to renovate facilities and
increase their outreach capacity.
In full campaign management mode, Vandever Batten was central in developing campaign materials, guiding campaign
communication, and designing cultivation events. We created materials for and attended both the weekly campaign planning
meetings and the monthly campaign cabinet meetings. In addition, administrative support such as donor research,
gift tracking, and volunteer management meant that Vandever Batten was fully engaged in all campaign activities.
Thompson Child & Family Focus (TCFF) has a 100+ year legacy of serving and treating children and families
in North Carolina. Following a campaign planning process that confirmed the feasibility of a $10 million
campaign, Vandever Batten managed the successful Heroic Measures campaign. We led all phases of campaign
planning and development activities over 18 months. The result? TCFF expanded capacity by 40% with a new child
development center and four new treatment cottages. At the campaign’s conclusion, VB led next-step discussions
on strengthening the stewardship, major gifts and planned giving programs.
