Destination Marketing Association International (DMAI) is the most important and widely-respected organization focused on the needs of the destination marketing industry. Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs) are responsible for driving business, convention and leisure visitors to their destinations. The Destination & Travel Foundation, a complementary organization to its parent organizations, DMAI and US Travel Association, conducted a landmark national study clearly identifying several opportunities to engage industry members and friends in a special effort to strengthen the industry. Planning for a major fund-raising campaign to provide the Destination & Travel Foundation with the necessary financial resources to meet new needs, while also maintaining existing vital programs and services, began soon after. CCS is assisting DMAI and the Destination & Travel Foundation in a special $4,000,000 campaign designed to address the three most pressing issues facing the business and leisure travel industry - relevancy, technology and social responsibility. This highly successful campaign recently surpassed its $4,000,000 goal, raising over $4,080,000.

For over three quarters of a century, the American College of Radiology (ACR) has devoted its resources to making imaging safe, effective, and accessible to those in need by providing training and certification programs for its nearly 33,000 members. The ACR Imaging Network (ACRIN®), a national clinical trials consortium under the leadership of ACR, is dedicated to conducting clinical cancer trials of diagnostic imaging and image-guided therapeutic technologies as they relate to cancer. To fulfill the promise of ACRIN® and accomplish new goals, ACR established The ACRIN Fund for Imaging Innovation. This campaign – the first of its kind for ACR – seeks to raise monies for the ACRIN® Fund by reaching out to corporations, foundations, and individual members for philanthropic support. Although the campaign is still underway, ACR has already exceeded its $5,000,000 goal. More significant gifts are expected as others are invited to participate in the ground-breaking work of ACRIN®. CCS is proud to be assisting ACR with this highly successful effort in the fight against cancer. 
Today in its 156th year, the North Carolina Medical Society (NCMS) is the state’s oldest and largest professional medical association with over 12,000 members. The North Carolina Medical Society Foundation (NCMSF) is its philanthropic arm, with a mission to improve access to quality health care for all North Carolinians. The NCMSF’s Community Practitioner Program (CPP) has a fifteen-year successful track record of placing primary care physicians, physician assistants and family nurse practitioners in rural, economically distressed and medically underserved areas of the state. CPP has helped provide an estimated $226 million in health care to the uninsured. To secure the Community Practitioner Program, the Foundation recently partnered with CCS to launch a $10 million capital campaign, which surpassed its initial goal in the first ten months. The goal has been increased to $20 million to ensure CPP’s future in the face of increasing numbers of uninsured North Carolinians and a decreasing supply of primary care providers. CCS is proud to assist NCMSF in this landmark campaign.
