The goal of our project was to identify a long-term process that our sponsor, the Monteverde Community Fund (MCF), could use to inform potential donors and applicants on the fund’s impact. We distributed surveys, conducted interviews, and performed a social media analysis to gain insight into locals’ knowledge of the MCF. We recommended that the MCF highlight grant beneficiary projects on social media, leverage local voices in promotional material, run more youth programs, and implement new outreach strategies.
