How We Measure Social Impact

At the heart of BREED Australia, we believe true impact goes beyond numbers. Change is not just about how many people we reach, but about what changes within them and where that growth takes them next.

How We Define And Measure Social Impact

Numbers alone do not tell the full story of transformation. That is why we measure success through the personal and lasting changes our participants experience in confidence, wellbeing, purpose, and connection.

We measure change in the moments that matter most:

  • Mental wellbeing: the ability to manage emotions, recover from setbacks, and avoid crisis.
  • Purpose: clarity of direction and the motivation to move towards it.
  • Connection: a sense of belonging that reduces isolation and builds trust.
  • Life skills: practical tools like communication, problem-solving, and resilience.
  • Pathways: access to education, employment, or business opportunities that create independence and stability.

These are not abstract concepts; they are tangible outcomes that shape lives and communities.

How We Track Change

We use a combination of self-assessments, facilitator observations, follow-up surveys, and real-life stories from participants to understand how our programs create impact.

This approach helps us see not only what skills were learned, but whether participants feel stronger, more confident, and more connected because of their experience.

Results That Speak for Themselves

The outcomes show the difference our programs make:

  • 87% of participants improved their mental wellbeing.
  • 85% increased their confidence and capability.
  • 79% left with a stronger sense of purpose.
  • 74% felt more connected to their community.

Each percentage represents a person who has gained clarity, resilience, and hope, and that is what true impact looks like.

Your Support Creates Transformation

When we say your support makes a difference, here is what that really means:

  • A $1,000 donation can fund the six-week mindset component of a program for one participant, helping them build confidence, resilience, and clarity.
  • A $2,000 donation can provide the full program experience, combining mindset with practical skills and future pathways that can transform a life.

Your support directly fuels personal transformation and long-term community change.

Together, We Create Lasting Change

Every person deserves the chance to discover their purpose and potential.
At BREED Australia, we are proud to measure impact not by numbers alone, but by lives changed, one person, one moment, one story at a time.

Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that BREED is located on the lands of the Darug Peoples and pay our respects to Darug Elders past, present, and emerging. We also acknowledge that Western Sydney is a former resettlement area, and many Aboriginal families call Western Sydney home, some for many years across generations, and for some, more recently.
