Data visualization helps people understand the significance of data by placing it in a visual context:
how might it forward the efforts of a non-profit?
There’s an infinite number of ways data visualization could help non-profits’ causes.
Tableau, a leading data visualization tool, has a division that works exclusively with non-profits around the world as well as a social responsibility division that takes on causes.
