Annual Non-Profit Institutions (NPIs) surveys
Abstract
Purpose: This survey is being conducted to collect data relating to activities of Non-Profit Institutions in Uganda. In particular, UBOS is collecting data on volunteer work and donation/giving. By this we mean work one does that in some way helps others outside his/her own family and friends for no monetary pay and giving or donating money.
NON-PROFIT INSTITUTIONS (NPIs): This refers to all legal or social entities created for the purpose of producing goods and services whose status does NOT permit them to be a source of income, profit, or other financial gain for the units that establish, control or finance them. In practice their productive activities are bound to generate either surpluses or deficits but any surpluses they happen to make cannot be appropriated by any other institutional units. The basis for defining NPIs focuses on the common characteristic that they do not distribute their profits.
MODULES
There are two modules of the questionnaires and they include; A) Organizational Module and B) Volunteering module.

Data Processing
Data Editing
The data were entered in 5 computers using the specially prepared software in Access. The data were entered in the regional offices of the UBOS, with 10 staff trained prior to data processing. In order to ensure quality control, the software was programmed to check the internal consistency of data entered. Procedures and standard programs developed under NPI. The Stata 10 statistical package was used for data tabulation and analysis.
Data Appraisal
Estimates of Sampling Error
To estimate the standard errors for NPI indicators we used the estimation of variance for the proportion given in the formula:
Vp'= Def*p (1-p)/(n-1), where:
p - proportion for the variance estimate,
n - sample size, and
Def - effect of sample planning for the observed group of indicators.
The standard error is the square root of Var xd'.
Vp'= Def*p (1-p)/(n-1), where:
p - proportion for the variance estimate,
n - sample size, and
Def - effect of sample planning for the observed group of indicators.
The standard error is the square root of Var xd'.
