CCS Fundraising Reorg Boosts Regional Capacity, Facilitates Partnerships for Century Communities

Community Fundraising Capacity Strengthens Potential for Homebuilder–Nonprofit Partnerships

CCS Fundraising is reorganizing its senior leadership to deepen regional advisory capacity, a shift that homebuilders such as Century Communities may find consequential for community development and affordable‑housing partnerships. By elevating Peter Hoskow to president and chief operating officer and installing four managing partners to lead geographic teams, CCS is institutionalizing a model that it says will deliver more consistent, regionally grounded counsel on complex capital campaigns and donor cultivation. For national builders who coordinate with local nonprofit land trusts, community foundations and housing partners, a more coordinated fundraising adviser network can streamline capital planning for amenities, infrastructure and affordability components often embedded in new developments.

The move is likely to matter because community and philanthropic capital increasingly underpin the non‑market elements of housing projects that builders undertake or support. CCS frames the change as sharpening executive focus and cross‑regional execution, which enables advisers to pair firmwide experience with local relationships. That combination helps nonprofits execute multi‑jurisdictional capital drives and sustain operations that interface with private developers — for example, funding for community centers, park improvements, or subsidy layers for affordable units. Century Communities, which develops in multiple U.S. markets, faces recurring needs to coordinate public, private and philanthropic funding streams; a fundraising firm with stronger local bench strength can reduce friction and accelerate project timelines.

Practical outcomes from CCS’s reorganization include faster campaign design, more predictable donor pipelines and tighter coordination across markets — all factors that can reduce the soft‑cost risk for developers partnering on community projects. CCS is emphasizing consistent implementation of best practices across its U.S. and European offices, which it expects will increase capacity to advise on capital strategy and donor cultivation that intersect with housing development goals. Builders that proactively engage such advisers may find it easier to scale community investments alongside new home construction.

Leadership moves and regional appointments

CCS announces Peter Hoskow as president and COO while Jon Kane remains CEO. The firm names Greg Hagin as managing partner, Atlantic (Philadelphia); Sarah Krasin, West (Los Angeles); Eric Javier, Northeast and Europe (New York); and Lindsay Marciniak, Central (Chicago), aiming to strengthen regional teams and client partnerships.

Implications for homebuilding strategy

Industry players say clearer fundraising leadership can unlock philanthropic partnerships that support infrastructure, community amenities and affordability—areas where Century Communities and peers increasingly seek reliable, scalable funding sources.
