Do you donate directly towards the operations expenses of these meta-charities?
Yes. I donate to both GiveWell top charities (which Charity Science supports) and Charity Science’s operations.
It seems to me that in order to get the best multiplier for your donation, you would donate 100% towards operating expenses, since any dollar not spent on operating expenses wouldn’t have any multiplier. Is this right?
Yes. I donate to both GiveWell top charities (which Charity Science supports) and Charity Science’s operations.
This seems largely right, though it’s important to note that donating to the recommended charities of a meta-charity do help that charity.
