FWIW: GiveWell actually already had some opportunities in the pipeline that they were still working on (e.g. Dispensers for Safe Water). Given the funding needs of their top charities right now it’s looking very likely they’ll have more room for funding than they can fill this year (unless there’s unprecedented growth which seems unlikely given current projected economic conditions). At the GiveDirectly bar of funding (10%-30% as cost effective) there’s nowhere near enough funding for the foreseeable future.
