“From Stories to Evidence: How Mining Data Can Promote Innovation in the Nonprofit Sector”

Here is a great article entitled “From Stories to Evidence: How Mining Data Can Promote Innovation in the Nonprofit Sector”. Michael Lenczner and Susan Phillips discuss the importance of the T3010 Registered Charity Information Return data and its uses in encouraging innovation in the non-profit sector.  The T3010 information is a real gem and hopefully more people will use this very important resource.

Now if only we can get some data on the 80-100,000 non-profits, many of whom file the T1044 NPO Information Return, but CRA is not allowed to disclose them under the confidentiality provisions of s. 241 of the Income Tax Act.
