In order to learn more about the inputs that went into planning workshops, we asked program leaders to report on:
The budget that went into planning and implementing the workshop
The hours that went into planning and implementing the workshop
Budget
Reported budgets were available for half of reported photo initiatives and ranged from $1,300 USD to just over $20,000 USD.
We collected budget data for 3 photo initiatives (50%). Budgets ranged from $1,300 USD for a 10-day event, to $20,266.50 USD for an event that lasted for several months. [1]
Hours
We received staff hour data for only one photo upload initiative, and volunteer hours for only one initiative.
We received very little data about hour inputs. We collected data about staff input hours for one event, and volunteer input hours for another:
Staff hours: 80 hours went into implementing an event that lasted several months.
Volunteer hours: 20 hours went into implementing an event that lasted 10 days.
Without additional reporting, we're unable to determine the average time that goes into planning these events.
