As donors, we hear the term “theory of change” in conversations, but what does it really mean? What has an organization really done when it creates a new theory of change? How do we evaluate the qualities and merits of various theories of change?
During this session, Valerie Threlfall of Ekouté Consulting will help us to unpack the concept of organizational “theory of change,” using specific examples. We will also examine how we as individual donors can best assess nonprofit organizations’ theories of change and use this information to engage in deeper dialogue with nonprofits we might support. Come prepared with your questions and ready to learn!
This is the first workshop in SV2’s new “How of Giving” philanthropic skill-building seminar series.
Lunch will be served at 11:15am. Program will start at 11:30am.
