Catholic Charities and Demographics

[tparsons]

Hey Guys,

This is probably the Wrong forum, but

Is there a website that can break down the data of Catholic charities in terms of dollars and the demographics for giving.

Thanks

Is there a website that can break down the data of Catholic charities in terms of dollars and the demographics for giving.

I doubt even the individual charities themselves could provide this information (because they never collect it in the first place). And, even if they could provide the information, it would be nearly impossible for a “website” to aggregate the data, because it would change almost constantly.

I don’t think that anyone at a soup kitchen (or whatever) questions anyone about age, gender, education level, income, marital status, ethnic origin, or any of the other “demographic” categories.

Most Catholic charities (and other charities as well) don’t expect the people they serve to fill out a survey. They never collect demographic data (because they don’t really care), so they can’t publish it.
