Abstract

Open Philanthropy publishes a list of organizations they recommend to individual donors who are looking to support effective altruism causes. The organizations are selected based on criteria such as alignment with Open Philanthropy’s values, cost-effectiveness, and potential for impact. The recommendations are categorized by cause area, and include organizations working in criminal justice reform, farm animal welfare, other policy causes, scientific research, and general effective altruism. Open Philanthropy’s program officers provide brief explanations for their choices, outlining the organizations’ work and why they believe them to be worthy of support. The recommendations are not intended to be exhaustive, and Open Philanthropy encourages donors to conduct their own research. – AI-generated abstract.
