Harvard Business Review
“Working closely with its grantee Rubicon Programs, REDF developed 25 criteria that not only measure the success of job-training programs but also help Rubicon to manage the programs more effectively.”
The Wall Street Journal
“With $3 million in funding, The Roberts Enterprise Development Fund...was created...as a forum for ‘getting practitioners and funders together.”
US News & World Report
“The Roberts Enterprise Development Fund...is a model of the new way... One of the funds goals is to give young people on the fringes of society a chance to learn what they need to find and keep jobs in the for-profit world. And, in a radical break with traditional foundations, REDF not only tracks its successes and failures but publicizes them in...detail on its Web site.”
USA Today
“Furthest along this path is...The Roberts Enterprise Development Fund, which has developed a formula that measures the outcomes of the nonprofit businesses it supports with businesslike objectivity...[through] a set of indexes called the Social Return on Investment.”
