After years split between two campuses, Aurora Central Catholic High School united in 1995 on a single new campus. This school building had served the Catholics of Aurora, Illinois, well. But as the Chicago metro area expanded westward, the building became increasingly inadequate for the growing community. Over 15 years, enrollment nearly doubled. To cope, school leadership put up a temporary, modular building. But permanent campus improvements were clearly needed. The Heritage of Faith Capital Campaign was launched. Goals included building a STEM center, an athletics center and a performing arts center. A generous major gift of $3 million set the tone for this fundraising effort. Using the Steier Group’s capital campaign model, the Aurora Central Catholic community united around the goal, raising $5.4 million for these important campus additions.

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.
