Sightsavers' Deworming Program

Abstract

Sightsavers’ deworming program was one of GiveWell’s top-rated charities from 2016 to 2022. We updated our criteria for top charities in August 2022 and due to these changes, Sightsavers is no longer one of our top charities, but remains eligible to receive grants from our All Grants Fund. This does not reflect an update to our view of Sightsavers. The change was motivated by our desire to clarify our recommendations to donors, not by any shift in our thinking about Sightsavers. More information is available in this blog post. We are no longer accepting donations designated for Sightsavers. You can support Sightsavers by donating directly here. If you would like to support GiveWell’s grantmaking you can do so here—we plan to continue to support deworming through the All Grants Fund. r
