Amplify Your Sustainable Social Impact

Making truly sustainable social impact can seem daunting. Human challenges are complex, sticky, and can seem insurmountable. At the Center for Design Kindness, we will help your organization amplify your social impact. We help you work directly with your audience to create deeply effective and sustainable solutions. Our mission and purpose is to amplify your impact.

Human-Centered Programming

Solve challenging human problems in deep partnership with your audience. Bring their stories, goals, challenges and creativity into your programs. We can help you and your audience co-design, co-implement, and co-evaluate solutions that get at the heart of their challenges and goals. Check out our free tools and guides to get you started and learn more on our blog.

Learning & Growth

We help social impact organizations develop and implement an effective plan for Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning (M.E.A.L). Develop a powerful Theory of Change to drive your MEAL activities. Measure and communicate your outcomes with meaningful metrics and stories. Support learning, growth and development of employees, volunteers, and your audience. Receive hands-on tools, templates, and training. We can help with a strong and flexible learning strategy tailored to your organization.

Communication & Messaging

We will help you share the message of your impact while keeping the dignity and agency of your beneficiaries front and center. Engage your beneficiaries in communicating their stories, their growth, and the impact of your work together. Communicate the true impact of your programs through stories and meaningful metrics. We will work with you to develop a strategy to compellingly communicate your impact to donors, grant-makers, your community, and your audience.
