Impact Data Infrastructure

Our organization is looking to maximize the way we collect and analyze impact data to better demonstrate our value to stakeholders and position ourselves to secure capacity-building revenue!

We're in search of a volunteer to help us optimize our impact data infrastructure by recommending improvements to our current data collection processes across our organization and developing a data tool to visualize key data insights.

This project will include the following potential tasks:
-Review our current Annual Report
-Conduct an audit of our current data collection processes and the type of data points currently collected
-Recommend enhancements to our data collection processes to ensure we're capturing the most relevant data to demonstrate our program impact
-Make suggestions for visual presentations of the data - 8.5x11 print out? Powerpoint? Video? All? More?

By optimizing our infrastructure for collecting and analyzing impact data, we'll be better equipped to further improve our ability to demonstrate our value to potential funders and secure empowering financial resources.

As a nonprofit, we value transparency. We want the community to know how their support has impacted us and our area. Our annual report is an essential way that we communicate with current and prospective sponsors, partners, vendors, volunteers, and more that we are being good stewards of our resources. Ideally, this report would help us increase our sponsorships and subsequently the scope of food access we are able to provide at our market.

To support the execution of this project, the volunteer will have access to staff members who work closely with our data collection and reporting processes. We will provide details about our program, mission, and vision, as well as materials currently used for data collection (e.g. surveys intake forms, budgetary information about program expenses, etc.) Additionally, we'll share how we're currently using data to communicate with key stakeholders and support our fundraising efforts.
