By: Mark R. Kramer, Rebecca W. Graves, Jason Hirschhorn and Leigh Fiske
Abstract
The field of philanthropy is undergoing a fundamental transition and is moving toward more performance-centered and forward-looking evaluation approaches that provide foundations and grantees with timely information and actionable insights. Based on nearly 100 interviews with foundation leaders and evaluators, FSG’s research illustrates major trends and best principles with real-life examples of successful evaluation efforts. It also provides guidance to those seeking useful ways to incorporate evaluation into the work of their foundations.
