Three Focus Areas. One Digital Doorway.
Start where you are, whether that’s data, cybersecurity, or emerging tech, with tools built with and for the sector.
Data
Nonprofit Data Capacity Navigator
Free, bilingual assessment and roadmap tool to help nonprofits make better use of their data.
About the Data Capacity Navigator
The Data Capacity Navigator is a dedicated resource within the Digital Impact Hub, focused on helping nonprofits build practical data capacity.
Most nonprofits want to use data to learn, improve programs, make decisions, and report, but many aren’t sure where to start, and the advice available is often fragmented or tied to a specific vendor. The Navigator offers a trusted place to start. It connects nonprofits to:
- A Data Maturity Assessment that shows where an organization currently stands across the people, purpose, and practice that shape data use
- Data Journey Maps that turn assessment results into practical next actions and milestones
- Peer learning cohorts and free, bilingual expert advice matched to real nonprofit needs
The Navigator does not position data collection as an end in itself. Instead, it helps organizations navigate important questions such as:
- Where does our organization currently stand in our data capacity?
- What data work is realistic given our staff time and resources?
- What’s the next milestone that will actually move us forward?
By leveraging CCNDR’s research and national partnerships with Blueprint, Purpose Analytics, PolicyWise for Children & Families, and Tamarack Institute, the Navigator connects nonprofits directly to credible supports and practical next steps.
Cybersecurity
Nonprofit Cyber Impact Hub
Vetted resources to help nonprofits protect what they steward.
About the Cyber Hub
The Cyber Hub is the newest resource within the Digital Impact Hub, focused on building cybersecurity awareness across Canada’s nonprofit sector.
Cyber threats are growing more frequent and more sophisticated, and most nonprofit staff have never had the chance to build a working understanding of the risks in front of them. The Cyber Hub offers a trusted place to start. It connects nonprofits to:
- Clear, plain language explanations of cyber risk in nonprofit contexts
- Research informed tools and frameworks that help staff recognize warning signs early
- Curated learning pathways and external resources designed for real world nonprofit use
The Hub does not position awareness as an end point in itself. Instead, it helps organizations navigate important questions such as:
- What does cyber risk actually look like in our day to day work?
- Where are our biggest blind spots as an organization?
- How do we build a culture where staff feel confident raising concerns early?
By leveraging CCNDR’s research and national partnerships, the Hub connects nonprofits directly to credible supports and practical next steps.
Emerging Tech (AI)
Nonprofit AI Impact Hub
Practical guidance and learning pathways to support responsible AI adoption.
About the AI Hub
The Nonprofit AI Impact Hub is the first live resource within the Digital Impact Hub, focused on responsible AI use in nonprofit settings.
AI is evolving quickly, and many nonprofit organizations are unsure where to turn for reliable guidance. The AI Impact Hub offers a trusted place to start. It connects nonprofits to:
- Clear, plain language explanations of AI in nonprofit contexts
- Research informed tools and frameworks
- Curated learning pathways and external resources designed for real world nonprofit use
The Hub does not position AI as a solution in itself. Instead, it helps organizations navigate important questions such as:
- Where might AI be useful in our work?
- Where are safeguards and policies needed?
- How do we approach AI in ways that protect community trust and organizational values?
By leveraging CCNDR’s research and national partnerships, the Hub connects nonprofits directly to credible supports and practical next steps.
