About the 360Giving Data Standard

We developed the 360Giving Data Standard so funders can share their grants data openly, in an agreed format. This means it can be easily analysed with data from other organisations – so that people can understand the funding context, make informed decisions, and work together to support communities and good causes as effectively as possible.
