Collection & Organization

§

Collect valuable data to answer important questions. Organize and clean your data for analysis and reporting.

Have you ever thought…

  • I know what data I need, but don’t have the means of getting it.
  • I wish I knew more about my donors and beneficiaries
  • Our data is full of duplicates and hard to work with because we haven’t standardized how we enter names, addresses, and other information.
  • How do the individuals served by my organization compare with the characteristics of the community?
  • We spend a lot of time entering data.
  • Our data is hard to use because it is saved in multiple spreadsheets, in multiple locations, and/or in multiple versions.
