Let NCDS revitalize your organization
and transform your community.
“The long-term progress and success of many of our client communities is especially rewarding, and a testament to what can be achieved when you properly align sound strategies, committed leaders, and essential financial resources.”

NCDS President & CEO
National Community Development Services (NCDS) is America's leader in campaign fundraising for chambers of commerce and economic development organizations.
NCDS secures the financial resources that allow community and economic development organizations to fulfill their missions, increase their impact and value, and make their communities better places to live, work, and start or grow businesses. Our fundraising campaigns succeed because we do far more than simply ask constituents for financial support.
Founded in 1977 by Howard Benson, NCDS pioneered the multi-year strategic initiative approach that remains the industry standard for increasing organizational relevance, capacity, and economic impact. We've raised over $1.8 billion in communities of all sizes, from a few thousand people to several million.
"Using NCDS for our five-year economic development campaigns has been the secret to our success. Our chamber has worked with the company for eight campaigns, and we have never been disappointed in their world-class consulting services. They are consummate professionals and become an integral part of the local team from the feasibility stage through the successful launch of the strategy. Their "service after the sale" approach to what they do is a key differentiator and one of the many reasons they are so highly recommended."
