I think the best way to capture the feedback would be through a survey to the foundation membership. The user survey is already quite long, baked for this round, and has a different primary purpose,

This could include NPS* style questions which are a very standard and useful way to capture such feedback on an ongoing basis. 

We can have cover TC, Board, Staff, and foundation overall + general feedback box and still keep it short enough to get a meaningful response rate. 

If we do it annually we can compare the scores over time. 

I can get this rolling if there is general support.
