Recently GiveWell posted a plea for more donations. Based on their recent research, they now appear to be funding constrained: they have more than $700m of giving opportunities estimated to be more than 6x effective than giving cash, but only about $500m of funding secured.
We strive to ensure a diverse set of voices are heard. We want to emphasize that women and non-binary people, people of color, and people of all ages, religions, belief systems, and political perspectives are welcome at our meetings to share in our common interest in effective altruism.
