When it adopted a results measurement model in 2000, United Way of Calgary and Area invested in a system to support the capacity of our funded agencies to measure the outcomes of their work and the impact they are having in people’s lives.

Armed with this information from agencies, we can now evaluate and demonstrate the impact of our investments.

In 2007, we are taking a significant step forward. An outcome framework for our other two investment areas (Children and Youth and People Living in Vulnerable Situations) is currently being designed that will help us communicate about the real difference we are making in communities.
