Data Collection Plan
Project details
What we need
- A set of key metrics to regularly track
- Spreadsheet tool to collect data on key metrics with accompanying tables and graphs for analysis
- Training for best practices on data collection
- Training on how to use the spreadsheet and analyze key metrics
- Note: This project does not include data entry or analysis
What we have in place
- We currently have a clear idea of our programs and what to track, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a number loving staff member, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,808 , allowing us to put that money back into our programs that support 33 other environmental organizations, and have numbers to share parts of their stories as well!
Metrics are critical for receiving funding and proving the effectiveness of our work, and we currently aren't tracking any! We desperately need numbers to help tell our story.
