My sense is that most individual donors aren’t excited about multiplier orgs because they find them complicated, don’t have time to dig into the leverage numbers to really understand them, and therefore don’t trust those numbers. And I think that’s a pretty reasonable strategy for most individuals. But it does seem telling that funders that have the resources to do more vetting have supported such a wide range of multiplier orgs.
