Non Profit Organizations (NPOs) struggle to utilize their data to demonstrate their organizational effectiveness. NPOs collect data but struggle to extract information from the collected data because of a limited use of technology and lack of technical expertise. This IQP aims to address this societal problem by researching, developing, and implementing data visualizations that demonstrate a NPOs progress. An iterative design process was conducted with Caras con Causa to determine technology to use, visualizations, necessary changes in data practices, and what metrics to display. Through this process, a dashboard solution using Google Data Studio was refined to display key metrics for Caras con Causa’s LabCom Program.
