We measure the impact
We measure impact thanks to a proprietary methodology based on the research conducted by Chris Addy, Maya Chorengel, Mariah Collins and Michael Etzel, and synthesized in a Harvard Business Review article. We also used the work performed by TPG with Y analytics and Bridgespan to created a methodology to assess potential impact before a single dollar is committed.
Our measurement includes the number of individuals experiencing an outcome, an evidence-based quantification of the effect experienced relative to the counterfactual, the monetized value of the effect and some adjustment factors.
