Grantees’ feedback helps Charitable Foundation improve

The Charitable Foundation strives to create and sustain strong partnerships with New Hampshire nonprofit organizations.

In 2022, the Foundation contracted with the independent Center for Effective Philanthropy to conduct a confidential survey of our grantees to learn more about how they perceive our work, and ways we might improve it.

The Grantee Perception Report survey went out to all active grantees. It asked for feedback about the Foundation’s impact on their organization and community, our understanding of their work and the people served, and other topics related to the grantee-funder relationship.

We take these results very seriously and use the feedback and data we receive to improve our work. Since the results of our last CEP survey, in 2018, we have worked to improve our processes and systems based on feedback we received. We were gratified to see that this work made a difference to the nonprofit sector — as the survey showed marked improvement in important areas, including how grantees rated the Foundation’s impact on local communities, on their field of work, and on individual nonprofit organizations.

We want to share the full results of the survey, and to extend our thanks to those who chose to participate.

Your feedback was immensely valuable. We will use it to continue to improve our work at the Foundation as we strive always to be an effective partner in the great work of New Hampshire nonprofits.
