Request for Proposals: Evaluation of the Midwest Early Recovery Fund
The Center for Disaster Philanthropy (CDP)
Consultant/Contractor | Remote
Since 2014, CDP’s longest-standing fund, the Midwest Early Recovery Fund (ERF), has been a crucial part of our efforts to advance the equitable and long-term recovery of marginalized communities before and after a disaster. ERF fills a persistent gap in post-disaster funding, especially at the local level, where communities often struggle with identifying sufficient resources to address the unmet needs of those most vulnerable to the impact of disasters because of systemic inequities.
We are seeking a consultant to conduct an evaluation that would provide insights into both intended and unintended fund outcomes focused primarily on the past five years. The evaluation will inform decision-making and drive improvements in program development and implementation.
Budget: $27.500
Deadline to submit: September 18, 2024, 5 pm CT
