GuideStar Will Collect Diversity Data 'At Scale' With Nonprofit Sector

GuideStar announced an important new initiative to monitor the diversity of the nonprofit sector. It plans to work with the D5 Coalition and a range of other partners to collect diversity data about staff, board and volunteer demographics in nonprofits and philanthropy. Saying that past sporadic attempts to collect such information were inadequate, Kelly Brown, director of the D5 coalition, said that the end game of the project is diversity in the sector that is reflective of current demographics but also inclusion and equity.
