Going through the list of eligible organizations by cause area, I tried to identify less prominent organizations (that weren’t the top-ranked and thus most famous organizations among EA previously recommenden by Effective Giving / Giving what you can in the past years) and looked for a) a possibly neglected but promising approach (according to my gut feeling) and b) that made their funding goals concrete, sizeable and transparent through concrete measures. The organizations I chose claimed to be in the intermediate phase of growth with operations already running effectively but that I assume to be at a crossroads regarding strategy consolidation and current (temporary) funding deficits. The three organizations of choice seem promising for leveraging impact since I feel they 1. set an example for appropriate farming conditions and act with publicity; 2. attract and persuade new early career donors; 3. serve as a platform for organized campaigns.
