Is there a particular reason the charity areas are ‘Global Health and Poverty’ and ‘Environmental Impact’ rather than including any more explicit mention of animal welfare? (For people reading this—the environmental charities include the Good Food Institute and the Humane League along with four climate-focussed charities.)
Hi Alex, thanks for your comments! I’ll reply to each. I’m aiming to cast the net as widely as possible within the athlete community. To me this means mixing the novel (effective altruism) with the known. I think it is also valid to say that the animal welfare charities represented have a large impact on the environment.
This is really cool! Thanks for doing this :)

By the way EA Funds now includes the Founders Pledge climate fund which I think is a bit more straightforward than the animal welfare argument
