The amount of patients we treat, students we support, and jobs we help create are all transparent markers of what a project delivered and to how many people. But numbers, while useful, offer only a limited portrait of how our work positively changes the lives of millions of people in vulnerable situations. Our impact is also measured by the communities themselves. Relief International actively seeks out community feedback, both positive and negative, throughout a project’s life cycle to ensure that our work is of the highest quality and utility to all participants. This feedback helps to define the lasting effects of our projects. Participants’ voices improve us and our work, positioning us to better serve both our current and future community partners.
