In part 2, Join Gillian Knight from Healthy Communities Foundation for a case study presentation on one of the tools they decided to use for their grant-making process, Asana. She also takes audience Q&A on the process they used to increase equity in their  reporting requirements and process. 

After an assessment and listening, they identified technology tools that could help them refine their work flow and decrease the reporting and evaluation burden on their grantees, while still giving them time to check in and support the work they fund. 

This new work flow – a work in progress! – takes advantage of several technology tools they were already using, assembled in new ways. They also chose new tools and utilized some tools like Zoom, Calendly, Wizehive, and some AI tools, to work more efficiently. 

Join us to learn from Gillian their thought process, how they assessed their old work flow and how they went about matching up specific technologies to their business needs. As Gillian says, lots of tech presentations tend to talk in abstracts – join us to hear about some specifics. 

Part 1 of the presentation walks you through the Healthy Communities Foundation mission and assessment process as they tried to set up a grant-making and reporting process that would reflect their organizational values and decrease the burden on grantees, building partnership and equity into their granting relationships.
