OUR IMPACT
Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe
The Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe needed a home of their own because their leased space was unable to accommodate the Club's programs and their landlord was in need of repurposing the building. The Club engaged LCG for a feasibility study and subsequent campaign counsel to raise funds for construction of their own facility. Despite no history of major fundraising and a global pandemic, the Club stayed the course and secured $2.7 million in 18 months with LCG. The Club continued successful fundraising after LCG's contract ended because they established a philanthropy mindset and built effective fundraising structures.
"LCG was a critical partner in the success of our campaign. They gave our board of directors confidence that we could raise significant funds even though no one on the board had any experience in this area. LCG helped us pivot to an all-virtual capital campaign amidst a global pandemic. Thanks in part to our partnership with LCG, South Lake Tahoe will soon have a beautiful, safe facility for children, enabling their parents to work and support our community's economy.”
- Jude Wood, Executive Director of Boys & Girls Club of Lake Tahoe
Davis Community Housing & Meals
To address the growing homeless needs in the small city of Davis, CA, a community-wide collaboration partnered with LCG to raise more than $5 million to build a multifunctional facility, Paul’s Place. Paul’s Place was designed to consolidate critical services in a central location, provide expanded shelter and enhance programming to meet the highly diverse and complicated needs of people living without shelter.
“We began working with LCG in 2018. What began as an idea to replace an aging program facility with an expanded facility with more functionality was transformed into reality due to their skill, expertise and tireless efforts. LCG guided us, worked across a broad cross
section of our community, and assisted our board of directors in helping achieve our fundraising goals. We will be breaking ground on our new facility this coming summer. A great success!!!”
- Bill Pride, Executive Director of Davis Community Meals and Housing
Christian Brothers High School
Since the late 1990’s, Christian Brothers has partnered with LCG on three major fundraising campaigns, totaling more than $20 million. In
2020, the school wrapped up a successful campaign to improve its campus and grow its tuition assistance endowment. In that effort, LCG helped the school raise $12.6 million, exceeding its publicly stated goal of $11.8 million.
“I was initially skeptical about hiring a team of consultants. But I soon realized it was an excellent return on our investment. LCG brought structure, strategy, discipline, accountability, and best practices to our campaign. We could not have done it without LCG! LCG embraced our school’s mission and was deeply committed to our success.”
- Willie Nolan, Campaign Chair and Former Chair of the Board of Trustees
Jesus Center
Serving the Northern California community of Chico, the Jesus Center exists to address homelessness, hunger and poverty. The Jesus Center wanted to explore a comprehensive and collaborative effort to develop an integrated, shared services model: the Renewal Center. By offering programming at one central location in the city, the Renewal Center will offer paths to new life for those who are experiencing homelessness. More than $6.6 million has been raised to date.
"As a former campaign consultant myself, finding LCG was a dream come true. They are committed to discipline, high quality, and relationships: what a perfect combination to undergird our vision of a campus addressing many facets of homelessness in the aftermath of the Camp Fire.”
- Laura Cootsona, Executive Director of the Jesus Center
La Salle Catholic College Preparatory
La Salle Catholic Prep (Portland, OR) is a coed private high school with a rich tradition of excellence. The Board of Trustees hired LCG to facilitate a national search for the school’s next President/CEO. LCG managed all aspects of the search and screening processes including: community engagement, candidate recruitment and cultivation, Search Committee management, candidate screening, semi-finalist and finalist interviews, and communications. The search resulted in a qualified pool of candidates, a thorough screening process, and the board’s selection of a highly qualified leader. LCG will continue to support the board and position the new president for sustained success by providing onboarding and coaching services during his first year of service.
“The logistics of the process, and the time and effort devoted to it, were exceptionally well-structured and facilitated. … The amount of time, energy, wisdom, and depth of experience that LCG provided was first-rate.” - Member of the Board of Trustees and Search Committee
“LCG demonstrated a commitment to the client’s needs and stakeholder feedback. They did not simply stick to the original plan because that’s how it’s been done in the past.” – Katie Allen, Search Committee member
