By Susan Ross.
Our region of North Carolina is filled with top-rated colleges and universities, all of which set high bars for development excellence.
Over the past eight years, moss+ross has worked on more than 20 engagements with UNC Chapel Hill and its various schools and programs. We are particularly proud to be one of two named consulting partners for the $4.25 billion For All Kind campaign. Launched just over a year ago, the campaign has reached $2.3 billion in commitments.
moss+ross clients have included some of the biggest efforts on campus: the $1 billion UNC Medicine campaign, a $500 million Rams Club campaign, $400 million for the Kenan-Flagler Business School, and a $300 million focus for UNC Global.
We are also involved with schools and programs whose eight-figure goals present equally daunting challenges, such as the School of Law, the School of Media and Journalism, the School of Social Work, and The Graduate School (see complete list below).
Vice Chancellor David Routh has led a huge ramp-up in the Advancement Office at Carolina since his arrival. He and Associate Vice Chancellor Cynthia Butler have accompanied increased expectations with new funding for additional development staff, professional training, and improved infrastructure support.
Our knowledge of this fundraising environment and familiarity with the donor base and UNC team have been important differentiators, enabling moss+ross to provide the “local architect” services that have been needed across campus. Our partners and associates have the experience and credentials to take on anything, but we are also nimble enough and close enough to jump in where and when we are needed.
“moss+ross has delivered on its promise to provide tailored strategic counsel to many of our schools and units. Their deep bench of talented associates has helped us with campaign strategy and fundraising plans, strategic planning, and interim staffing. Mary and Susan have a deep understanding of our university and minds that are helping us achieve our vision.”
