Capital Projects

We have a separate campaign, membership levels, appeals, etc. For reporting, this campaign is not part of the grouping of annual campaigns. Therefore the contributions are not counted. We also only have one campaign which spans the life of the campaign. We have separate funds for particular projects and support.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Marie

Hi!

Is anyone’s organization tracking contributions designated for capital projects that are apportioned over a number of years to match the depreciation expense of these capital items? We are planning for a capital project where the costs will be spread over a number of years as depreciation expense once the project goes into service. Some of the gifts we anticipate to be significant and we don’t want those contributions to affect annual memberships. One initial thought was to create a separate campaign and membership structure for these gifts. Has anyone done that? Does anyone have a different way they are tracking contributions to capital projects?

Thanks
