What is Giving What We Can?

Giving What We Can is a global community of effective givers. We’re on a mission to make giving effectively and significantly a cultural norm.

We help donors to find high-impact causes and identify the best charities working to solve them. We provide the support, community, and information you need to maximise the impact of your charitable donations.
