What is the Nonprofit Common Data Model?

The Nonprofit Common Data Model (CDM) is a data structure created to help organizations eliminate data silos, enabling powerful insights into their data. The core data model has been developed based on entities and attributes that nonprofits commonly use for constituent management, fundraising, awards, program delivery, and impact tracking. These entities include, donor commitments, designations, transactions, awards, disbursements, delivery frameworks, results, indicators, benefit recipients, and more.
