We frequently receive requests from researchers for data beyond what's available through our API and other open data offerings. We're often able to create a customized dataset tailored to the research questions of the project while protecting the privacy of our users. If you're considering a project that might need a custom dataset like this, we encourage you to get in touch to discuss your plans!
Get in TouchWhile we review and scope each custom data request individually to understand what partnership opportunities might be feasible, datasets we've worked with researchers to create in the past have included
Anonymized transaction data with numeric identifiers to protect individuals' personal information while still allowing detailed analysis of giving patterns
15+ years worth of GlobalGiving historical data in a variety of formats (CSV, JSON, etc.)
Any project, organization, and narrative report data that's already publically available elsewhere on GlobalGiving
Segmentation based on relevant categories, like project thematic area and geography
Detailed documentation capturing the assumptions, context, and caveats associated with each field in the dataset
We've worked with some of the finest institutions in the world to explore transformative questions in aid, philanthropy, and generosity.
