Grants & Evaluation

Grant Applications

I develop grant proposal materials with the Watersmith Guild to showcase the impact of our environmental education programs on youth in our target communities.  I designed the impact summary on the left to highlight the approach the Watersmith Guild takes for an application for operational funding. 

Evaluation

I work on the strategic evaluation plan for the Watersmith Guild.  Building on the organization's history of using video interviews as part of their filmmaking curriculum, I developed and integrated these interviews with an online survey to create a comprehensive evaluation method.  The method utilizes mixed evaluation methods that are largely integrated into the exiting educational modules we provide to youth.  To support this process, I collaborated with evaluation professionals at North Carolina State University on behalf of the Watersmith Guild.  Read more about this collaboration in a blog post that I wrote here
