Impact

Measure what changed—not just what was promised.

The Foundation is still developing programs, so this page does not invent participant counts, dollars distributed or outcomes. It defines the public measurement framework that future programs should use.

Reach

Participants served, geographic reach, partner organizations and accessible resources delivered.

Learning

Completions, skills gained, projects built, educational progress and participant-reported confidence.

Access

Accessibility barriers identified or removed, assistive-technology support and inclusive resources created.

Opportunity

Mentorships, scholarships or grants when launched, completed projects and credible next-step opportunities.

Impact-reporting standard

Public reporting should distinguish verified outcomes from estimates and participant-reported outcomes, protect privacy, avoid double-counting and explain meaningful limitations.

Current reporting status: no operating-impact numbers are claimed yet. Future verified results will be added as programs launch and data becomes available.

How each program framework would be measured

The six program frameworks named on the Programs page each lead to different kinds of evidence. The measures below are planned and will only be reported once a program actually runs.

Accessible Tech Lab

Planned measures: training sessions delivered, public guides published, and participant-reported confidence using screen readers, mobile accessibility features and accessible software.

Build Without Barriers

Planned measures: lessons completed, beginner projects built, and whether learners report that accessibility was part of how they learned to build software, web pages or apps.

Creative Access

Planned measures: participants using accessible music production, audio and digital-media tools, and completed creative projects.

Mentor Network

Planned measures: mentor matches made, sessions held and participant feedback on whether the guidance was practical.

Open Resources

Planned measures: resources published, accessibility checks passed and feedback from people using them in different places.

Accessibility by Example

Planned measures: demonstration projects published and accessibility issues documented and fixed in each one.

Rules for honest reporting

When results are published they are intended to follow these planned rules:

  • Separate verified outcomes, estimates and participant-reported outcomes, and label each one.
  • Report small numbers honestly instead of rounding them up or presenting them as trends.
  • Avoid double-counting a person who takes part in more than one program.
  • Collect only the data needed, protect participant privacy and never publish identifying details without consent.
  • Explain limitations, such as small samples or self-reported data.
  • Correct material errors publicly, as described on the Transparency page.

Planned, not yet in operation: no program has produced reportable results yet, so no participant counts, dollars or outcomes appear on this page. Results will be added to the annual reports archive when they exist.

Where this fits

Impact reporting is part of the governance framework described on the Governance page and in the adopted Bylaws available in the Document Center. The Foundation’s mobile app is in review on Google Play, and the iOS version is in development.
