Water for People built a
system to collect and visualize
data about its work so the
organization can show donors
how their gifts are being used.
But just as important, say the
group’s leaders, is the real-time
feedback that can help them
improve programs.
SPARKING ADVOCACY
Voices for America’s Children has created a series
of infographics on topics like the impact of potential
cuts to the Pell Grants program and the percentage of
children living in poverty. The group uses the graphics to
educate supporters and urge them to send messages
to their members of Congress on the issues.
GREATER TRANSPARENCY
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is starting
to move from static infographics toward
interactive data visualization because it wants to
be more transparent about the data it’s using.
