Success is planned for …
From Planning to Implementation:
Launching a new program requires planning and funding. We specialize in getting organizations planning grants that succeed, creating the plan, and landing the implementation grant to make the program a reality.
Capital Projects:
The Cabra Group's expertise in Capital Projects is based on the full range of services from evaluating readiness, developing capacity for the campaign and new operations, feasibility studies, campaign plans, and campaign execution.
