Highlights
Campaign Staffing Support
S&W provided a dedicated Campaign Director to lead and manage day-to-day operations of Temple Sholom’s endowment campaign.
Driving Donor Engagement
Interim staff provided training for the solicitors and the Board in addition to support for prospect tracking, donor strategy, volunteer engagement, and preparation for cultivation and solicitation activities.
Strategic Campaign Foundation
This staffing engagement builds on S&W’s earlier work developing a campaign strategy, case messaging, and communications materials.
The Challenge
As Temple Sholom prepared to launch an ambitious endowment campaign, it recognized the need for experienced staffing to drive daily execution and ensure campaign momentum. While lay leadership and internal staff brought strong commitment and energy, the synagogue lacked the development infrastructure needed to manage prospects, support volunteer solicitors, and maintain campaign operations. At the same time, the leadership team wanted to build a fundraising model that would support the congregation well beyond the current campaign.
The Solution
Schultz & Williams (S&W) provided StaffSolutions™ by placing an experienced consultant to support Temple Sholom’s campaign efforts in the form of a Campaign Director to serve as the day-to-day strategic lead as well as the manager for logistics, timelines, and communications. The consultant provided volunteer engagement, managed cultivation and solicitation planning, and oversaw the tracking of prospects and donor activity.
This staffing model was made more effective by the strategic groundwork S&W had already laid—developing a campaign strategy, case for support, and collateral materials that positioned Temple Sholom for success. By providing both staffing and strategic continuity, S&W helped Temple Sholom build campaign infrastructure that could support not only this effort, but future fundraising initiatives as well.
