LBG for Community

LBG_for_C_website.png

LBG has launched a new program - LBG for Community, to support non-profit organisations with corporate-community partnership reporting, impact measurement and strategic partnership development. 

The program will delivered via a webinar series from July to October this year. Participants will be introduced to the LBG for Community data collection tool, a simple input, output, impact framework for non-profits to use in reporting back to their corporate partners. The tool was refined following a pilot project with 18 community organisations in 2016, including The Smith Family, Benevolent Society, Cancer Council Australia and Plunket NZ. The revised tool now incorporates LBG’s social impact methodology, and also contains a new set of guiding principles for practitioners across non-profit and corporate sectors responsible for negotiating impact measurement, reporting and partnerships.

Organisations who sign up to the program in 2017 can nominate up to 3 people to participate. Upon completion, participants will be recognised as LBG Certified Community Partners, and will be invited to attend the LBG Annual Conference free of charge.
