St. Thomas Aquinas Church and Catholic Student Center

Thanks to a growing ministry, leadership of the St. Thomas Aquinas Church and Catholic Student Center in Ames, Iowa, knew that now was the time to conduct an endowment campaign to better support its campus ministry. On a growing Iowa State University campus, STA had been frustrated by losing students to other, more aggressive churches. A new partnership spurred growth as the student center expanded from four small groups to 43 and student leadership expanded from 10 to 72. The Catching Souls … Our Catholic Mission Capital Campaign focused primarily on major gifts from alumni in support of the Supple Endowment Fund, which funds campus ministry. With this successful campaign, the church and student center can fund four FOCUS campus missionaries that will allow the community to continue its momentum.

When you hire the Steier Group, you eliminate the need to contract with additional vendors for services like copywriting, graphic design, grant writing, video production, website development or wealth screening. We reject the one-size-fits-all approach to fundraising and embrace every opportunity to design a capital campaign plan that will maximize our client’s fundraising potential.
