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.

| Announcing our 2019 top charities | 2019-11-26 | Catherine Hollander | GiveWell | GiveWell Maximum Impact Fund | Malaria Consortium Against Malaria Foundation Helen Keller International Deworm the World Initiative Sightsavers The END Fund GiveDirectly Schistosomiasis Control Initiative | GiveWell | Evaluator consolidated recommendation list | Global health and development | GiveWell annual top charrities list. As in previous years, GiveWell recomemnds that donors donate to GiveWell to regrant to top charities at its discretion, but also provides its current ranked list of top charities to help donors make an informed decision. Its ranked list (from best to worst) is: Malaria Consortium (seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) program), Against Malaria Foundation, Helen Keller International (vitamin A suppplementation), charities that treat parasitic worm infections (Evidence Action's Deworm the World Initiative, Sightsavers, The END Fund), and GiveDirectly. From the perspective of cause areas, the rank is: malaria > vitamin A supplementation > deworming > cash transfers. This is consistent with, and highly influenced by, the cost-effectiveness estimates that GiveWell uses. The post highlights Malaria Consortium as the charity to select for donors who want to give directly to a charity. The post links to a number of more in-depth write-ups explaining the charity ranking, as well as to https://www.givewell.org/charities/top-charities/2019/open-philanthropy-recommendation which describes the recommendation to Open Philanthropy Project (and indirectly, to Good Ventures) on how to allocate funding to the top charities in 2019 |

| Against Malaria Foundation | -- | -- | Global health/malaria | https://blog.givewell.org/2017/12/11/staff-members-personal-donations-for-giving-season-2017/#Catherine | -- | Donation (90% to AMF) is based on trust in the GiveWell process and its recommendation of the AMF gap as the most important one to fill. Percentage of total donor spend in the corresponding batch of donations: 90.00%. | |
| Against Malaria Foundation | -- | -- | Global health/malaria | https://blog.givewell.org/2016/12/09/staff-members-personal-donations-giving-season-2016/ | -- | This part of the donation was based on the recommended allocation by GiveWell (75% to AMF). Percentage of total donor spend in the corresponding batch of donations: 75.00%. | |
| Malaria Consortium | -- | -- | Global health/malaria | https://blog.givewell.org/2016/12/09/staff-members-personal-donations-giving-season-2016/ | -- | This part of the donation (25% to Malaria Consortium) deviates from the recommended allocation by GiveWell (which suggested 25% to the Schistosomiasis Control Initiative). The reason for selecting Malaria Consortium is the high value placed by the donor on health outcomes relative to improving income. Percentage of total donor spend in the corresponding batch of donations: 25.00%. | |
| Against Malaria Foundation | -- | -- | Global health/malaria | https://blog.givewell.org/2015/12/09/staff-members-personal-donations-for-giving-season-2015/ | -- | This is the first giving season for the donor since she started working at GiveWell. She is convinced by the GiveWell charity evaluation process, and is therefore donating 95% based on the GiveWell recommendation. The remaining 5% will be donated to a charity working in the animal welfare/factory farming area, though the details are not yet decided. Percentage of total donor spend in the corresponding batch of donations: 95.00%. |
