AN ONLINE SERVICE FOR EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS IN THE ACHIEVEMENT OF INDICATORS USED IN THE PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT OF TOP OFFICIALS OF THE TERRITORIAL ENTITIES OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION AND THE WORK OF EXECUTIVE BODIES OF THE TERRITORIAL ENTITIES OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION is a service that allows you to speak the language of government institutions. How to convince officials to support the project, allocate funding, provide information support? How to assess that a certain project will help achieve the goals in a particular region? What metrics and indicators to use? What methodology to apply? Answers to these questions can be provided by an online service for evaluating the impact of non-profit organizations on the achievement of indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of top officials (heads of the crucial governing institutions) of the territorial entities of the Russian Federation and the work of executive bodies of the territorial entities of the Russian Federation. Available only in Russian. According to the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated February 4, 2021, there are only 20 such indicators. Several of them can be fulfilled through active efforts of non-profit organizations and, accordingly, through the support of NGOs by regional administrations, local governments, and regional businesses. The service is primarily informational in nature – it provides information about the availability of assessment criteria, a list of indicators, their components and calculation methods, and also helps to easily and quickly compile a list of points of influence that each NGO has on assessing the performance of governors and establish communication in a language understandable to NGOs and the administration.

THE VOLUNTEER ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION CALCULATOR is another service developed by the GLADWAY Foundation in partnership with the Institute of Social and Economic Design at the Higher School of Economics. Available only in Russian. The Calculator uses a replacement cost calculation to identify the value of volunteer labor for an organization. The calculation uses data from an API service developed by Headhunter.ru, the leading Russian-language job search portal, including the average salary in the specified region for the specified type of specialist across 100 vacancies posted in a sector during the current month. To perform the calculations, it is necessary to fill in the fields «Specialization», "Location", "Position title"; choose the industry that best fits the competencies of a volunteer involved in the project (the list of industries is provided by Headhunter's API). After you click the «Calculate» button, you get a figure that shows the average salary for a certain position in a specific region. The result is then exported to a PDF file, which can be used to assess the estimated organization's contribution when applying for project funding, as well as to conduct an economic assessment of the effectiveness of volunteer contributions to a social project.
