Charity Village®NewsWeek: Cover Story

Charity Village®NewsWeek: Cover Story: "From whence it began
Welcome to the Atlas of Alberta Charities, an unprecedented project providing charities and funders with proficient tools that are user-friendly and practical. The seed of the idea was first conceived in 2007 when Seel and colleagues were working on a research project with the CRA on small and rural charities. Trying to determine where exactly those charities were located, Seel knew charts and graphs wouldn't cut it. They were more interested in manipulating data that comes with postal codes, eventually producing a mapping function from which to view the distribution of charities by characteristics, income and any other variable found on the T3010 form."
