GuideStar: Data About Nonprofits Goes Online

This edition of Carnegie Results focuses on GuideStar, an organization that was created to provide a rich database of information about charities and philanthropies through an Internet-based delivery system. It's been a successful effort, but one that faces a number of challenges in regard to costs, fees, sustainability and how best to serve the public, all issues we explore in these pages.
