The most successful development programmes are those that best integrate the various components of Budget Fundraising, Capital Fundraising and Bequest Promotion/Planned Giving. Taking advantage of all available opportunities in a fully-integrated fundraising programme is known as Total Development™, a concept pioneered by Michael Downes. The Process begins with acquiring new donors, ensuring their involvement over many years, to the stage where will eventually leave a bequest to your organisation.

Total Development™ means that we work hard to integrate your capital campaign with your overall development programme. Our goal is to provide a seamless and harmonious relationship between these differing aspects of your development programme because we believe they build upon and strengthen each other.
