What Eden cemetery does

EDEN+ Nonprofit Fundraising Consulting (legal entity Eden Plus, LLC) is a privately-held, for-profit professional services firm headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, that provides fundraising, capital campaign, and development consulting to nonprofit organizations across Iowa, the Midwest, and nationally. The firm operates with a deliberately small (1-10 employee) senior-level team that delivers direct, high-touch engagement across the full fundraising lifecycle, including feasibility studies, campaign management, board and volunteer training, major gifts and planned giving programs, annual giving, donor stewardship, development assessments, grant writing, donor database and CRM services, and interim leadership during organizational transitions. Its client roster spans healthcare (MercyOne Richard Deming Cancer Center, $14M goal), education (Bergman Academy, $20M goal), faith-based (St. Thomas Aquinas Church, $6M), human services (DMARC, $5.8M), arts and culture (Des Moines Community Playhouse, $3.5M), youth development (Girl Scouts of Greater Iowa, $4.2M), animal welfare (All God's Creatures, $4M), and women-serving nonprofits, with engagement sizes ranging from $300,000 to over $20 million.

EDEN+ has no proprietary technology platform; the underlying stack relies on third-party donor databases and CRMs (Raiser's Edge, Salesforce NPSP, Blackbaud NXT, DonorPerfect, Bloomerang, Tessitura, Little Green Light, eTapestry, Altru, Parishsoft), data analytics through a Wealth Engine partnership for wealth screening and prospect research, and digital storytelling via Ovrture. AI is applied to content generation, donor communications, predictive prospect analytics, and process automation, but treated as a productivity layer rather than a differentiator. Beyond core consulting, EDEN+ operates two specialized programs — the Women's Fundraising Lab (focused on women-led and women-serving organizations) and the Des Moines Fundraising Institute (a 24-class educational curriculum the firm founded and underwrites) — and produces thought-leadership content including the 2026 Philanthropic Landscape Reports covering Iowa, Des Moines, the Cedar Rapids-Iowa City Corridor, and the Midlands, plus a Rural Fundraising Field Guide.

The business model is professional services: revenue is generated through quote-based, project-tailored consulting engagements (capital campaigns, feasibility studies, training, interim staffing, and content licensing), with pricing not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is relationship-driven, enterprise field sales conducted directly with nonprofit executive leadership and boards, supported by content marketing (blog/insights, monthly Fundraising Focus newsletter), thought-leadership reports, and community engagement through NACGP, AFP (Central Iowa chapter presidency), and CASE. The firm has been bootstrapped through its 10-plus-year operating history with no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or external equity partners.
