New Data Tool from the Foundation Center: Trend Tracker, Interactive Info on More than 20K Foundations

Something many have wanted for a long time. Look for a longer overview of Trend Tracker soon.

Trend Tracker, [the] new online search tool, offers immediate, interactive access to the Center’s historical financial data on U.S. grantmakers. For the first time, anyone can tap the Center’s database to create statistical reports on the nation’s top 20,000 foundations. Review an individual grantmaker’s fiscal data or compare up to five foundations and create charts, line graphs, or tables displaying historical assets, gifts received, expenditures, or giving information.

Trend Tracker is part of Fact Finder, a suite of free tools including Foundation Finder and 990 Finder, which provide quick access to key information on foundations and other nonprofit organizations. Trend Tracker currently covers the years 2000-2005, and subsequent years will be added as that data becomes available. The Center will also be adding other interactive tools for analyzing data about foundations and their giving.
