Thank You for Taking Our Survey
We would like to thank all of our grantees for filling out the Center for Effective Philanthropy survey. We greatly appreciate your thoughts and insight. Look out for more on the results from the survey in our next issue!
 
Cycle 1, 2010 Final Report Results
 
In addition to grantmaking, the staff here at the foundation has been focused on evaluating program results after receiving final reports from our Cycle 1, 2010 grantees, the first cohort to use our impact evaluation tool. In this cycle, 37 programs received grants totaling $1,357,003. The impact evaluation tool allowed us to measure and assess the grant programs we funded in this cycle. Overall, 5,700 were served in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. From those served, 89% reported a condition change.
