Good Measure works to: 

  • Build a strong culture of data and learning within nonprofit and funder partners 

  • Provide data & evaluation skill-building opportunities to the nonprofit and philanthropic sector  

  • Encourage funders to shift their own practices to better support data & evaluation efforts 

  • Support the systems and infrastructure needed to access and use community data

In 2021, we are committed to being more intentional about how we deliver our programming and content in an effort to  create more accessible and equitable ways to connect to this community of Data & Learning Champions.  

Good Measure is committed to delivering programs that center equity in data & evaluation work.

Our priority areas for 2021 include: 

  • Changing funder policies and mindsets 

  • Building equity into our existing offerings 

  • Building community stakeholder voice into decision-making strategies 

  • Focusing on equity through our Special Project Fund 

  • Evaluating our programming through community-centered evaluation practices 

Good Measure is supported by funders like you, who care deeply about building data & evaluation capacity within our Central Texas region.

Good Measure Advisors receive the following benefits:

  • The opportunity to join Good Measure staff and Steering Committee members in planning the 2021 Partners in Measurement series and the Special Projects Fund. 

  • Up to eight (8) tickets for your grantee organizations to attend Data You Can Use, our team-intensive course focused on developing evaluation strategy using a participatory approach.  

  • Bi-annual Advisor meetings to connect with other funders and share feedback with Good Measure Staff and Steering Committee members.  

  • An invitation to our Good Measure community gathering in late fall 2021, culminating our programming for the year.   

To support this work and participate as a Good Measure Advisor, we invite funders to make a contribution that feels meaningful to your organization, rather than at a fixed fee.

The suggested contribution for Advisors is $2,500.
