The Klote fundraising campaign was a very organized, professional, and focused system. It kept us on track with the specific time line for different phases of the campaign, so enthusiasm stayed high and people eagerly worked together.
We were blessed to have our consultant. He brought wonderful energy and enthusiasm that kept the momentum going. It was incredibly helpful to have him full-time, especially since this was the first major campaign that the church had done in over two decades! I really appreciated his ability to listen and learn about Unitarian Universalism and the congregational culture, his multi-tasking abilities, attention to detail, and his follow-through.
The consultant worked closely with the ministry and campaign teams to engage people about their dreams and hopes for their spiritual home and motivate them to make a deeper commitment to the congregation’s mission and vision. If you talk to any of our members, they will tell you that it was a rich spiritual experience.
The campaign was good for the unity, involvement, and commitment of our members. Though we have not completed the campaign yet, I believe the consultant’s work has created the momentum and focus we need to carry us through and realize our vision for the future.
