Greetings from Quidoo!

Foundation demand for data and outcomes is the new normal. With requirements that vary from funder to funder, deciding what to measure and how often is not a one size fits all, but varies from organization to organization.  This month, we are connecting you to the resources to help you think about what will work for your nonprofit.  Quidoo's goal is to help you quickly discover the solutions and data you need to inform your work.

Thanks for reading and sharing!
