Executive summary: This celebratory impact review shares updates from Charity Entrepreneurship’s incubated charities—spanning mental health, maternal health, education, early child health, policy, research, and animal welfare—highlighting promising cost-effectiveness, impressive reach, and future plans to scale and deepen their impact; the post is largely descriptive, with organizations providing their own progress snapshots.
Key points:
Strong early-stage impact and promising cost-effectiveness across sectors: Multiple charities report early results that suggest high cost-effectiveness—e.g., HealthLearn’s newborn care course is estimated to be 24× more cost-effective than cash transfers, Kaya Guides aims for 45 WELLBYs per $1,000 by 2026, and Lafiya Nigeria’s family planning work is modeled at up to 53× cash transfers.
Rapid scaling plans and strategic partnerships: Several charities are entering ambitious scale-up phases—e.g., Learning Alliance expects to expand from 15,000 to 40,000 students by 2026, Vida Plena plans to double its reach and government partnerships, and Healthy Futures is supporting a national rollout of syphilis testing in the Philippines.
Innovation in delivery models tailored to local contexts: Innovations include Kaya Guides’ WhatsApp-based therapy for rural Indians, Taimaka’s <$100 malnutrition treatment in Nigeria, and NOVAH’s IPV-prevention radio drama reaching tens of thousands of Rwandans.
Policy influence and systems change efforts underway: Organizations like Concentric Policies and Healthy Futures are engaging with governments to embed policy reforms (e.g., tax policy changes, syphilis screening mandates), while AMI supports contraceptive procurement legislation at the state level in Nigeria.
Animal welfare interventions scale in reach and sophistication: Shrimp Welfare Project and Fish Welfare Initiative report millions to billions of animals helped through humane slaughter, water quality, and density improvements, with growing focus on precision aquaculture and R&D for scalable interventions.
Meta and research-oriented projects show speculative but high-upside potential: CEARCH estimates a giving multiplier ≥10× GiveWell through cause area exploration and donor influence, while emphasizing the challenge of moving money toward identified opportunities.
