In our commitment to advancing racial, social, and economic justice, it is essential that we closely examine the patterns present in grantmaking practices. By diligently gathering and analyzing demographic data about the organizations being funded, philanthropy can gain valuable insights and make meaningful strides toward achieving racial equity. With this clear framework in place, we can hold the sector accountable for our funding decisions and transparently assess our progress year after year, ensuring that our efforts contribute to real and lasting change.
Join us for an opportunity to better understand the impact of collecting demographic data , how to use it to uncover where philanthropic dollars are going, and how to integrate the data into effective use once collected. Funders will also be able to hear from fellow peers on why they chose to take the step to join the Demographics via Candid initiative, their experience as an organization creating the capacity to input their data, and how imperative it is that this data exists. Demographics via Candid empowers nonprofits to share their demographic data one time on their Candid profile, where it can be accessed and re-used by all. We will give an overview on how organizations can start using Demographics via Candid and pull the curtain back on potential challenges or barriers to participating.
