Program design and strategy
LEMO Foundation
A program architecture and a multi-year plan a board can fund.
The situation
A foundation with real commitment to young people had more program ideas than structure, and each year started over.
What we found
The intent was clear. The architecture underneath it, who gets served at what depth and how it is staffed, was still implicit.
What we built
The artifacts
How it runs now
Program decisions get made against the architecture instead of against the calendar.
The result
A plan the board can fund in multi-year terms, and a shared vocabulary for what the foundation builds.
