Federal Climate & Infrastructure Funding Data Resources Survey

Demographics by Candid Workshop

• Nonprofits are bogged down with requests for demographic data. Funders need the data to advance equity in funding practices, but we have to find a way to get it without adding burden to nonprofits. With Demographics via Candid nonprofits share demographic data, one time, through their Candid profile on GuideStar, where it can be accessed and reused by all. Join Candid’s launch event on February 14, 2 p.m. ET to learn more and join the movement.
