GivingData

Data powers every decision in philanthropy—from funding recommendations to compliance checks and impact reporting. But when data is inaccurate or inconsistent, even the best systems can fail. Poor data quality slows down migrations, undermines reporting, and can derail AI initiatives. This checklist gives grantmakers a practical roadmap to keep data clean, reliable, and ready for strategic use. https://lnkd.in/gvNGBBwa

"Both the team and the users of GivingData foster such a lovely sense of community and there's a real emphasis on learning." - Rachel Wiegardt-Egel #GDConnect2025 once again surpassed all expectations! It’s inspiring to see this incredible community come together each year to share, learn, and grow. This year was especially meaningful as it marked our first gathering since joining forces with Foundant Technologies and SmartSimple Software. Collaborating with so many team members, clients, and partners throughout the event truly showcased the power of our communities united. We can't wait to see you in DC next year!
