Giving What We Can

We base our advice on the work of independent, impact-focused charity evaluators and grantmakers. Combined, they have spent 100,000+ hours of research to find the most effective charities in their respective cause areas.

Best charities

We focus on large-scale causes with highly effective solutions that are severely underfunded.

 Global health and development 

Every year, tens of millions of lives are lost from preventable diseases as a result of extreme poverty. We recommend charities to tackle critical global health issues, including malaria and noncommunicable diseases. We also support programs that address the root causes of these problems, such as poverty reduction and policy change.

 Farmed animal welfare 

Billions of farmed animals live and die in horrific conditions every year, yet less than 1% of funding going towards animals helps promote farmed animal welfare. We recommend charities to advance US animal welfare legislation, receive corporate cage-free commitments, and drive alternative protein development.

 Climate change 

We are currently heading towards global warming of more than 2.5°C. We recommend charities that tackle climate change from various angles: decarbonizing the global energy system, funding research into carbon capture technologies, and passing climate-friendly legislation.
