The goal?

Help 25,000 nonprofit organizations build out impact frameworks at absolutely no cost to them by the end of 2024.

Why is this important?

Empowering the nonprofit community with the resources to more easily own, manage, and share their success measures - both pre- and post-grant award - will improve their ability to make data-driven decisions, attract mission-aligned capital, and inspire others to support or join their cause.

How will we achieve our goal?

To execute on this vision we're asking mission-driven organizations to partner with us (at no cost) to share this program with nonprofits in their network.

  • Free access to UpMetrics to build, manage and share their Impact Framework

  • Connect with one of our Impact Measurement & Management teammates to review and validate their framework
