Introduction

Giving to a fund usually lets you do more good. Most donors don’t have time to do deep, regular research on all the charity options. With an expert-led fund, donors pool their money to be distributed as effectively as possible. Because of the size of the pool, experts can better research where the money is most needed, and follow-up on how it’s being spent.

GiveWell researches a broad spectrum of high-impact global health and wellbeing programs. With this fund, your donation goes to the most cost-effective funding opportunities among GiveWell’s full grantmaking spectrum, including top charities, newer programs, policy initiatives, and research that may carry higher risk but offer significant potential impact.

The All Grants Fund provides grants to incubate newer programs, provide organizational support, promote policy change, fund relevant scoping and research, or support other potentially high-impact and cost-effective initiatives.

Highest expected value

While there is often less certainty about the individual grants made via the All Grants Fund, since they include less proven or more experimental opportunities, GiveWell believes that—in aggregate—these grants represent the highest-impact use of marginal funding.

100% of your donation goes to orgs that need it

After transaction fees, 100% of donations to the fund are distributed to the recipient organizations. GiveWell does not use any of these funds for their own operating support.
