Check out this great conversation, sparked by Brenda S.' post on the CEP blog. 👇 Thanks for sharing, Catherine (Cathy) García!
“Philanthropy has an evaluation problem. What funders have come to look for and focus on through traditional evaluation is not what will help us improve our giving, or help communities thrive. We don’t have to give up rigor to live into our values. We must not dismiss progress because of evaluation, however wide or narrow we understand it to be. It doesn’t have to be either/or, as some have tried to claim it is. It must be both.”

#Funders have used CEP's Grantee Perception Report to gather candid, comparative feedback from their grantees for more than two decades. In addition to sharing confidential reports with individual funders to enable them to continually improve their own work with grantees, CEP uses this rich aggregation of tens of thousands of grantees’ experiences to spotlight grantee experiences and analyze trends and changes in grantmaking practices. Read highlights from the CEP blog that mine the unique "GPR dataset," offering insight into philanthropic practice from grantees themselves.
