This is an online portal with information on donations that were announced publicly (or have been shared with permission) that were of interest to Vipul Naik. The git repository with the code for this portal, as well as all the underlying data, is available on GitHub. All payment amounts are in current United States dollars (USD). The repository of donations is being seeded with an initial collation by Issa Rice as well as continued contributions from him (see his commits and the contract work page listing all financially compensated contributions to the site) but all responsibility for errors and inaccuracies belongs to Vipul Naik. Current data is preliminary and has not been completely vetted and normalized; if sharing a link to this site or any page on this site, please include the caveat that the data is preliminary (if you want to share without including caveats, please check with Vipul Naik). We expect to have completed the first round of development by the end of July 2024. See the about page for more details. Also of interest: pageview data on analytics.vipulnaik.com, tutorial in README, request for feedback to EA Forum.

The list differs from the previous year: almost all the donations are in the animal welfare space (with none in the domains of AI safety, other global catastrophic risks, or GiveWell-style global health and development). Donation amounts are not disclosed, likely by policy | |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Open Philanthropy | 445,000.00 | 1 | Animal welfare/factory farming/chicken/cattle/pig | https://www.openphilanthropy.org/focus/us-policy/farm-animal-welfare/federation-indian-animal-protection-organisations-india-farm-animal-welfare-2019 | Lewis Bollard | Intended use of funds (category): Direct project expenses Intended use of funds: The grant page says: "This funding will support work to improve the welfare of chickens at slaughter and dairy cows as well as support movement building and exploratory work on fish farming in India." Donor reason for donating at this time (rather than earlier or later): The grant timing is around the end of the timeframe of the previous two-year grant https://www.openphilanthropy.org/focus/us-policy/farm-animal-welfare/federation-indian-animal-protection-organisations-india-animal-welfare-reform (2017-07).

| Open Philanthropy | 332,944.00 | 2 | Animal welfare/factory farming/chicken/cattle | https://www.openphilanthropy.org/focus/us-policy/farm-animal-welfare/federation-indian-animal-protection-organisations-india-animal-welfare-reform | Lewis Bollard | Donation process: Grantee submitted a budget at https://www.openphilanthropy.org/files/Grants/FIAPO/FIAPO_Budget.pdf Intended use of funds (category): Direct project expenses Intended use of funds: The grant page says: "The grant will provide funding to support reform of poultry slaughter and dairy industry practices; grassroots advocacy including capacity building for farm animal welfare; and a pilot corporate/institution campaign to reduce animal product usage." Donor reason for selecting the donee: The grant page says: "We are excited about the grant primarily because of FIAPO’s broad network of grassroots members across India; our Program Officer for Farm Animal Welfare, Lewis Bollard’s, confidence in FIAPO’s relevant leadership; and the potential opportunity we see in India—one of the world’s largest producers of eggs, fish, and chicken—to encourage farm animal welfare reforms and advocacy." Donor reason for donating that amount (rather than a bigger or smaller amount): The amount in Indian rupees is consistent with the budget in https://www.openphilanthropy.org/files/Grants/FIAPO/FIAPO_Budget.pdf submitted by the grantee. Donor reason for donating at this time (rather than earlier or later): This is one of five grants made to animal welfare groups in India at around the same time. Intended funding timeframe in months: 24 Donor retrospective of the donation: The followup grant https://www.openphilanthropy.org/focus/us-policy/farm-animal-welfare/federation-indian-animal-protection-organisations-india-farm-animal-welfare-2019 (2019-06) suggests continued satisfaction with the grantee. Other notes: Affected countries: India; announced: 2017-08-21. |
