Impact List is building up a database of philanthropic donations from wealthy individuals, as a step in ranking the top ~1000 people by positive impact via donations. We’re also building a database of info on the effectiveness of various charities.
It would be great if a volunteer could build a website with the following properties:
-It contains pages for each donor, and for each organization that is the target of donations. -Pages for donors list every donation they’ve ever made, with the date, target organization, amount, and any evidence that this donation actually happened. -Pages for target organizations contain some estimate of each component of the ITN framework, as well as evidence for each of these components. -There is a web form that allows any Internet user to easily submit a new entry into either of these data sources, which can then be reviewed/approved by the operators of Impact List based on the evidence submitted.
I love this idea!! It would be amazing if it could sway the ~1000 individuals listed on the site, however I suspect the true power is increasing awareness and engagement in effective giving. Super cool project.
