Stakeholder Research

We are looking for a volunteer who can conduct a stakeholder research initiative for our organization.

Our organization needs a clear vision of who we trying to engage in our programming, fundraising, and partnership efforts. We are hopeful that intentional research on our organization’s core stakeholders can help ensure that our messaging hits all the right marks. This project will include: gathering and analyzing information about target demographics, ideal forms of outreach, and/or what worked well or not during past outreach drives. This research could include digging into what our expected stakeholders are reading, who they’re influenced by, where they live, and demographic details. Your research could also fuel the work of building user personas: a mock-up of your organization’s ideal individual donor, corporate partner, hands-on volunteer, or foundation partner.

By synthesizing this information, you will empower our team to make better, data-backed decisions on how to progress toward our mission's goals.

Stakeholder research will help us better understand the needs, priorities, and perspectives of those we serve, ensuring our programs and partnerships align with our mission to improve healthcare access and outcomes for patients with complex diseases.

To prepare for this project, we have outlined who we believe our current core audiences are and who our aspirational audiences will be. You will have a dedicated team member to work with on this project.
