CASE STUDY

Fundraising

DC Vote

DURATION: 10 MONTHS

Civica builds fundraising programs that strengthen an organization’s financial foundation.

DC Vote's 2025 leadership transition led to a significant decline in funding.

They hired Civica to rebuild the organization, including its fundraising program. We developed their strategy, rewrote their case statements, drafted every element of their grant proposals, and pitched the organization to local and national foundations.

We also organized a group of nonprofits that competed successfully, together, for a major community foundation grant.

The impact: Civica increased DC Vote's income by over 130 percent in six months, repositioning it as a well-funded advocacy leader.
