NON-MONETARY ASSISTANCE

Compared to grantees at the typical funder, a larger proportion of Rogers grantees receive intensive non-monetary assistance as described below.

Non-Monetary Assistance Patterns

Grantees were asked to indicate whether they had received any of 14 types of assistance provided directly or paid for by the Foundation. The specific types of assistance asked about are listed at the end of this section. 

Based on their responses, CEP categorized grantees by the pattern of assistance they received. CEP’s analysis shows that providing three or fewer assistance activities is often ineffective; it is only when grantees receive one of the two intensive patterns of assistance described below that  they have a substantially more positive experience compared to grantees receiving no assistance.

 

Grantees were asked to select whether they had received any of the following types of assistance provided directly or paid for by the Foundation:

Management Assistance Field-Related Assistance Other Assistance
General management advice Encouraged/facilitated collaboration Board development/governance assistance
Strategic planning advice Insight and advice on your field Information technology assistance
Financial planning/accounting Introductions to leaders in field Communications/marketing/publicity assistance
Development of performance measures Provided research or best practices Use of Foundation facilities
  Provided seminars/forums/convenings Staff/management training
