Measuring Long-Term Change

At WeBuildSA, we believe that true impact goes beyond immediate results. Our comprehensive Impact Assessment methodology ensures that every project we fund and every volunteer effort we support creates lasting positive change in South African communities.

Through our ImpactBase system, we track and report on the long-term outcomes of our initiatives, providing transparency and accountability to our donors and partners.

Data Collection

We employ a mix of quantitative and qualitative methods to gather comprehensive data on project outcomes, including surveys, interviews, and on-site observations.

Analysis & Reporting

Our team of experts analyzes the collected data to identify trends, measure progress against goals, and produce detailed impact reports for stakeholders.

Continuous Improvement

We use assessment findings to refine our approach, optimize resource allocation, and maximize the impact of future projects across South Africa.
