In 2022, Cargill Associates joined forces with DickersonBakker, a leading national nonprofit consultancy serving diverse organizations throughout the U.S. and Canada. This dynamic collaboration has amplified our capacity to serve higher education institutions better than ever before.
With a long-standing presence in the field of higher education fundraising, Cargill Associates stands as a leading consulting firm for capital campaigns. Our expertise extends to a diverse range of institutions, with a dedicated focus on serving the needs of faith-based and secular institutions.
Under the leadership of founder Bob Cargill, we introduced the retainer-based capital campaign model, setting a new benchmark for excellence in the fundraising industry. Today, we continue to apply these time-tested approaches to support institutions of all sizes.
We’ve spent decades cultivating the perfect philanthropic roadmap for your academic institution.
We’ll assess your institution's readiness and the constituency's support potential. A well-executed study brings focus, momentum, and stronger donor relationships, benefitting the entire campaign.
Our expert guidance spans higher education capital campaign planning, prospect research, volunteer training, and comprehensive campaign management, ensuring your success from start to finish.
Our annual giving campaigns aim to elevate ongoing school support. We engage alumni, students, families, faculty, and the community, encouraging increased annual contributions.
In the current funding landscape, strategic plans are vital for securing support. Our strategies not only evaluate progress but also fuel excitement, guide refinement, and drive impactful transformations.
In today's competitive fundraising landscape, colleges and universities need strategic donor communication. Tailoring how, what, and when you communicate with them is distinct from your mass market donors.

It made such a difference in our college’s image that we’re still benefitting to this day - from the campaign and from what Cargill Associates brought to the table.’
