As government, civic and business leaders address a wide range of serious challenges; many will reach out to nonprofit groups for help only to find themselves hampered by a lack of up-to-date information on this important sector in our society.

Since 2008, the Aspen Institute Program on Philanthropy and Social Innovation has convened leading figures in the field of nonprofit research and data to discuss and assess our nation's nonprofit data collection system. These meetings have provided a unique and neutral forum for discussion, deliberation, information-sharing and consensus-building.

Primary participants in the Nonprofit Data Project include representatives from:

GuideStar
The Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy at the Urban Institute
Foundation Center
Indiana University's Lilly Family
School of Philanthropy
Center for Civil Society Studies at Johns Hopkins University
