Thank you, Bart! That was what I was wondering about.
We keep pretty accurate records of number of bikes given, recipient sponsors, housing status, kinds of flora and fauna found in donated bikes, etc., but in conversations with some corporate and large potential donors (United Way), I've been asked for data about the impact of those numbers on the community. Outcomes, basically, which is something that I haven't heard of from a bike NPO.
I might follow up with you as we try to figure out our best practices. Thanks!
