Every nonprofit has a story to tell. In this Lunch and Learn we will focus on how to use data to help you tell your story in the clearest, most accessible, and engaging way. Kate Baker, our guide on this Lunch and Learn, will share real life examples and talk about:
- How to determine what story you want to tell and what kind of data will help you.
- What are the best practices for tracking and communicating data?
- What kinds of tools are available for visually presenting and tracking your data?
- Where to find data sources relevant to the region that can support your nonprofits story.
