A vacancy in a key staff position at a development
office can be a time of great anxiety or opportunity.
Counsel from The NJSG
can provide a range of services during a transition
period, including a complete assessment of resource
allocation to identify areas of opportunity and growth.
For example, your annual fund director may have recently
left your organization leaving you with an immediate
need for a new staff member. It may take months to fill
that position with the best person available. A member
of The NJSG who
is a seasoned fund raising professional can step in,
assess the situation and keep your annual fund running
without missing a beat.
The NJSG can provide
out-sourcing services on a six-month, one-year (or longer)
contract basis to help an organization assess the situation
more clearly and get action plans in place quickly.
An experienced fund raising professional would be assigned
to your organization that will be able to get the annual
fund program, sponsorship program, or capital campaign
functioning at full-speed in a short amount of time.
As with all of the services of The
NJSG , we would assess your situation and
develop a plan that serves you with the greatest amount
of efficiency. Our goal is to make sure that your organization
is gets what it needs by utilizing our expertise.
Services counsel can provide on an interim basis:
- Assess campaign history over the past three years
in dollars raised and sources.
- Determine fund raising efficiency in terms of cost
to raise money.
- Evaluate current programs and identify areas of
potential.
- Identify reasons for increases or decreases in giving
totals.
- Prepare a comprehensive development plan for 1-2
years that will help shorten the learning curve for
the new Director.
- Assess candidates and help establish criteria for
the position.
- Provide direct fund raising implementation until
the position is filled and the service is no longer
needed.
