GuideStar & The Foundation Center Merging To Form The Definitive Non-Profit Transparency Organization
GuideStar and the Foundation Center recently announced they are merging to form one single, non-profit organization, named Candid. Candid has stated that GuideStar products and services will continue to operate normally, unaffected by the merger.
Together, the two organization hope to become the definitive one-stop shop for information about grants and non-profit organizations. Foundation Center currently collects information from more than 13 million grant offerings, while GuideStar runs a database with profiles on 2.7 million different active organizations. With Candid, that information will be combined into a single database that provider organizations and consumers can use . . .
