Capital Campaign Tracking With Fund Accounting
Building campaigns generate restricted giving that must be tracked separately from operations. Grain Ledger keeps campaign contributions, spending, and balances in their own fund with a full audit trail.
Challenges we hear from churches like yours
Grain Ledger is built to replace spreadsheet risk with fund accounting that scales.
Campaign gifts mixed with general fund
Restricted fund tracking ensures capital campaign contributions stay earmarked for their intended purpose, separate from operating cash.
Donor visibility into progress
Track total campaign giving and spending against goals so you can report progress to your congregation and donors with confidence.
Construction and vendor spending
Bills and expenses tagged to the campaign fund give your board a clear picture of where campaign dollars are going.

Common questions
- How does Grain track capital campaigns?
- Create a dedicated restricted fund for your campaign. Contributions are posted to that fund, and spending is tracked against it so the balance always reflects what is available.
- Can we report campaign progress to the congregation?
- Yes. Fund balance reports show total campaign contributions received and total spent, giving you clear progress figures.
- Does campaign giving flow into donor records?
- Yes. Campaign contributions appear in donor giving history and are included in year-end tax-compliant statements.
