Kyla Kasharian, Senior Knowledge and Impact Associate at Siegel Family Endowment, shares how GivingData’s flexible platform has transformed their grants management processes.
As a grants management team of one—without coding experience—Kyla highlights how GivingData’s customizable and user-friendly platform has empowered her to make changes independently, without relying on a development team. She emphasizes the platform’s flexibility, responsiveness, and the strong collaborative relationship with the GivingData team.
Kyla also discusses how the system supports Siegel Family Endowment’s commitment to reducing administrative burden for both staff and grantees. With features that enable oral reporting, survey integration, and outcome tracking, GivingData has helped the organization turn qualitative insights into more structured, actionable knowledge.
This partnership, built on collaboration and adaptability, has been instrumental in evolving their grantmaking process and amplifying impact.
