Project Lead:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cradles to Crayons<\/a>, provides children from birth to age 12, living in low- income and homeless situations, with the essential items they need to thrive \u2013 at home, at school and at play. We supply these items free of charge by engaging and connecting communities that have with communities that need.<\/span><\/p>\n

Detailed Project Description:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Review online partner portal and impact survey to analyze and suggest new ways to use current data and tools to assess the outcomes and impact of our service, including but not limited to: (1) tracking the number of children served as well as the number of times each child is served (grouping families, C2C programs, etc.); (2) collecting information on income (amount, # parents working, etc.), family situation (# kids & parents), housing (homeless or not); (3) understanding\/correlating the primary and secondary impacts of our service, such as toxic stress, family finances, education, health and development opportunities and outcomes. Identify gaps in data, when relevant, and make recommendations on how to streamline reports to improve the organization’s ability to assess impacts, foresee demand, and build a stronger evidence base to support fundraising activities.<\/span><\/p>\n
