NCDS brings private and public stakeholders together to raise money to support projects that impact the economic development of a community. Since 1977 NDSC has raised over $1.6 billion for these projects. They have a national reputation for completing fundraising efforts on time, over goal and under budget. They succeed by bringing community investors to the table whose business success becomes tied directly to your network’s success.
NCDS partnered with Successful.com to create an inclusive eight-week feasibly analysis and goal assessment that identifies a credible group of potential community investors in your proposed broadband project. Working with your project champion, we determine if fundraising for the network is viable and pinpoint the dollar outcome that fundraising should produce. You receive at the completion of this effort documentation to incorporate into your grant application that increases the strength of your bid for funding.
To bring these investors into your broadband picture, NCDS relies on a methodology proven effective in other projects. Through in-depth interviews with 50 – 55 business and community leaders, they help you set fundraising goals and identify candidates to spearhead this effort.
NCDS refines your business case to take to potential investors so they are assured the broadband project will be executed as effectively as possible. They define roles with the broadband project for key investors, which further contributes to the network’s sustainability and to the strength of your grant application. NCDS offers a scaled-down version of this service for communities that want an assessment faster than eight weeks.
It’s hard to argue with success and NCDS has had plenty of it. Contact us to bring success to your broadband plans.
