OUR SERVICES
Customized Solutions. Sustainable Resource Strength.
For many nonprofits, capital campaigns have been the traditional answer to funding their capital needs, but capital campaigns are a short-term episodic form of fundraising. They are beneficial if capital resource needs are also short-term and episodic. Over the course of 50+ years of work in healthcare exclusively, we’ve found that there are rarely any shortages of capital needs in community hospitals.
Our focus, by contrast, is backed by a proven approach to increase charitable support, social capital, and marketing strength every year, every day.

Board Retreats and Strategic Planning
A Hillary Lyons Associates executive can visit your organization to conduct a one or two-day retreat to explore the process of implementing the Development Council Plan. Every retreat is customized to address the strengths and weaknesses of your current development program, and will offer specific programs and suggestions to improve your long-term results. The retreat includes an analysis of program status and projected financial objectives.
Community Relations Programming
In the highly competitive market for philanthropy, those most thoughtfully organized to communicate, engage, and build support, stand apart. The community relations initiative helps our clients understand their own motivations for connecting with the community, establish clear objectives, prioritize target audiences, and develop a clear set of messages, stories, and tactics for ongoing success.
