Case Study: Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Fort Worth unlocks real-time child-level insights with Microsoft Power BI

How Power BI helps Fort Worth Boys & Girls Clubs care for kids

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Fort Worth, a nonprofit serving over 11,000 youth, faced a challenge with siloed data trapped in static PDF reports. They lacked a comprehensive view of program effectiveness and individual child progress, hindering their ability to make data-driven decisions to better serve their community. To overcome this, they partnered with Microsoft and systems integrator Doyenne360, which implemented a solution using Microsoft Power BI and the Azure platform.

The solution automated data processing through Azure Event Hubs and Stream Analytics, converting PDFs into dynamic, near real-time Power BI dashboards. This provided Microsoft's customer with the ability to analyze participation patterns, cross-correlate data at an individual child level, and predict program success. The results empowered leadership to make better decisions, understand their impact more deeply, and easily share compelling insights with their board and donors.
