Recently, we sat down with Gabe Cohen and Sara Ansell from True Impact to tackle one of the most common challenges foundation leaders face: demonstrating meaningful impact without overcomplicating the process.
In this practical, interactive session, we explored simple frameworks for moving beyond outputs to outcomes — and how impact data can strengthen board reporting and inform real decisions without overburdening your team or grantees.
You’ll hear candid conversation about what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next in impact measurement — plus actionable insights you can bring back to your foundation right away.
Whether you’re just beginning your impact measurement journey or looking to sharpen your existing approach, this is a session worth revisiting.

The Erie Community Foundation is rethinking what it means to support grantees...and it’s paying off.
Recently, we shared a conversation with The Erie Community Foundation about how real-time data and process improvements are transforming the way they work with community needs at the center.
In this interactive webinar, we explored how Erie has shifted from traditional grant reporting to post-grant meetings, enabling deeper alignment between grantee intent and foundation outcomes. You’ll hear how they’re leveraging technology through akoyaGO to streamline internal processes, gather meaningful outputs, and focus on collaboration.
Whether you’re exploring ways to reduce burden on grantees or seeking more responsive, data-driven decision-making tools, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
