Canada Survey of Giving, Volunteering and Participating - 2010 (csgvp)

Structure of the files

There are two data files for the 2010 Canada Survey of Giving,
Volunteering and Participating: the main answer file (MAIN), and the
giver file (GS). To link between the two Public Use Microdata Files use
the variable PUMFID. 

MAIN (Public Use Microdata Files) This is the main answer file and
contains one record per respondent. All questions except for those on
the GS file are located here. In addition, summary derived variables
have been created from the GS file and placed on the MAIN file. 

GS (Public Use Microdata Files) This is the "giving" or charitable
donation answer file. It contains one or more records for each person
who made a financial donation: one record for each of up to 10
charitable organizations to which the respondent donated, over the 12
month reference period, in response to a particular solicitation method.
For each of the 13 methods of solicitation itemized in the
questionnaire, a donor may therefore have up to 10 records, each
containing information regarding the type of organization, as well as
the total amount of all donations made to that organization in response
to that method of solicitation. In cases where the respondent donated to
more than 10 organizations in response to a given method of
solicitation, the total amount of all donations made to the remaining
organizations is present on the 10th record as derived variable GS1D08.
