Amount Raised: $4 million

Celebrating more than a century of service and recognizing the need for investment in facilities, RGI has worked with committed staff and community stakeholders to secure the investment needed to ensure the next generation of scientists are able to fully-appreciate this unique opportunity.  The campaign includes significant lobbying efforts to secure state of Iowa support along with a comprehensive community campaign including funding from public entities, foundations, corporations and individual donors.  RGI has also completed Annual Fund Plan design for the Friends of Lakeside Lab Foundation.

"Renaissance Group was instrumental in guiding us through the critical steps needed for the development of capital improvements on the Iowa Lakeside Laboratory's campus. RGI provided us with an easy-to-follow plan including the creation of campaign materials, setting a realistic funding goal and identifying potential donors. With Renaissance Group’s expert counsel, we successfully achieved our first capital campaign in more than 25 years."
