I've been tasked with determining if giving to one non-profit fund, Dollar Club (or "DC"), has led donors to give regularly to the General Fund (or "GF"). I've pulled a lot of data, but I'm not sure where to start to get the end product my company is looking for.
I'm currently using Mac OS, Excel 365.
I've pulled these reports: DC first date giving; GF first date giving; and GF all giving. All four reports contain the same headers (there are others too): Name; Campus; Individual ID; Family ID; Category; Date; and Amount. For the end product, I will be using the Family ID so that donations by multiple individuals within the same family all contribute to the results.
I have a spreadsheet with three tabs where I dropped data from the reports pulled: DC 1st Transaction; GF 1st Transaction; and All Transactions - GF. Due to the amount of data pulled, the All Transactions - GF tab is the result of individual .csv reports I saved to a folder, and then used Power Query to create the spreadsheet tab with the combined data from September 2019 to the end of January 2024.
I know part of determining if DC giving leads to long-term GF giving, donors' first DC giving date needs to be before their first GF giving date. I also need to show if GF giving has remained steady once the DC donors started giving to GF.
Ideally, I also need to create a dashboard to visualize by month the number of GF donors who remained steady in their giving.
Here's a mini-sheet with example data of one of the tabs (Dollar Club Giving):
I know this is a lot. Thanks in advance for any help!
