The Shehane Group

What is your goal-a campaign for a new building or an endowment campaign or both?

The Shehane Group (NJSG) can assist you with an initial fundraising planning study (organizational assessment) and lead you through a fully integrated campaign. We will guide you in planning, campaign timelines, multi-phase solicitations, volunteer recruitment, gift acceptance guidelines, accounting, marketing, case statement development, and strategies for foundation and corporation solicitation.

A call to The NJSG can put your organization on solid financial footing with sources of revenue never before considered. Our goal is to strengthen your organization as we work with you to position your nonprofit for success now and in future years. The NJSG becomes an advocate for your long-term philanthropic goals as we foster productive institutional growth.

  • The first step in campaign preparation is to conduct a Fundraising Planning Study. The NJSG will assess institutional readiness, community interest and support, volunteer enthusiasm, leadership potential, and the economic and environmental climate during this process. Generally, we measure the organizational barometer for success and then develop a plan of action that will lead you to your goal. A full report with findings and recommendations is submitted upon completion of leadership and volunteer interviews.
  • Campaign counsel is provided once a campaign is initiated and until it is completed. Acting as both guide and catalyst, our staff provides ready access to an objective, experienced resource-keeping the campaign on track and strategizing important philanthropic decisions. The NJSG provides daily on-site campaign supervision or ready access by phone, e-mail and monthly site visits in a flexible and focused manner.
  • Donor stewardship is the final step in a successful campaign. Before concluding our campaign responsibilities, The NJSG will set in place a stewardship program that should keep your donors content and your annual campaign moving forward.
    Donor recognition, accounting, acknowledgments, special events, phone-a-thon, direct-mail solicitation, estate giving programs and much more will all be part of the stewardship plans.

When you engage The NJSG's services, you set in place a plan for success while simultaneously securing your organization's future.
