Sanku—Project Healthy Children (formerly Project Healthy Children) is a nonprofit organization that works to prevent micronutrient deficiencies by helping countries design and implement micronutrient fortification programs.
Evaluation
GiveWell tentatively estimates that effective fortification programs may be in the cost-effectiveness range of their priority programs. Because of insufficient information about Sanku at the time of evaluation, GiveWell is uncertain about the cost-effectiveness of Sanku’s work specifically.[1] Sanku was a GiveWell standout charity from 2016 to 2021, when that designation was discontinued
As of May 2022, Sanku has received $600,000 in funding from Open Philanthropy,[2] and is also featured in The Life You Can Save’s list of “best charities”.[3]
