Finding it challenging to measure and evaluate your nonprofit's impact?
Evaluation Cafe Toronto is offering a one-day event that will connect nonprofit organizations with teams of volunteer evaluators to help solve those challenges.
Nonprofits and evaluation teams will work together on November 27th to develop a draft solution to a manageable evaluation problem. The evaluation teams will be led by top evaluators from across Ontario and include two to three other team members with various skills and experiences.
Selected organizations will leave the day with:
- Knowledge of which evaluation approach you should take (i.e. experimental, developmental, SROI, etc.)
- A draft model that describes the theory/logic of your initiative
- A recommended set of priority performance measures
- A draft framework for measuring your social impact
- A draft data collection tool
The event is being hosted at the Ontario Trillium Foundation offices at 800 Bay Street in Toronto on Thursday, November 27, 2014 from noon to 5 p.m.
