ENGAGED COMMUNITIES FOR HEALTHCARE MISSIONS
Hillary Lyons Associates happily joins NCHN in the mission of strengthening health networks. Beginning with the belief that an engaged community is a pivotal resource for breakthrough achievements in the mission of care, they offer members both training and consult to assist in building increased local advocacy and sustainable philanthropic support.
The Hillary Lyons Associates Difference
The basic premise: Community leaders who are involved with your organization know more. Those who know more, generally care more. Those who care more, give more. Those who give, make the best requests of others. We strive to build a more thoughtful, enterprising capacity for continuous philanthropy… so that local healthcare organizations can be a more powerful and sustainable force for good.
For many nonprofits, capital campaigns have been the traditional answer to funding their capital needs, but capital campaigns are a short-term episodic form of fundraising. They are beneficial if capital resource needs are also short-term and episodic. Over the course of 50+ years of work in healthcare exclusively, we’ve found that there are rarely any shortages of capital needs in community hospitals. Our focus, by contrast, is backed by a proven approach to increase charitable support, social capital, and marketing strength every year, every day. Our client work is distinguished by the presence of strong local volunteer leadership organized to expand community relationships and philanthropic support.
