GWWC

GWWC, also known as GiveWell, is a non-profit organization dedicated to finding and recommending outstanding opportunities to use wealth for good. Founded in 2007 by Holden Karnofsky and Elie Hassenfeld, the organization focuses on maximizing the positive impact of charitable donations. GWWC achieves this by conducting rigorous research into various charities, primarily those working in global health and poverty reduction. Their evaluation process involves in-depth analysis of a charity's effectiveness, transparency, and cost-efficiency.

The core of GWWC's work is identifying interventions that demonstrably save or improve the most lives per dollar spent. They publish detailed reports and reviews on their website, outlining the evidence supporting their recommendations. This allows donors to make informed decisions about where their money can have the greatest impact. GWWC does not accept donations for itself, but rather directs all funds to the charities it endorses. Their approach emphasizes evidence-based philanthropy and aims to shift the charitable sector towards greater accountability and measurable outcomes. The organization's mission is to promote a more effective and impactful approach to charitable giving.
