Ask HN: What charities do you donate to?

- wallace_f 9y agoTo everyone
- tmaly 9y agoI am not sure if it is a charity, but I give to Mozilla each year as I use firefox. I have given to Goodwill
- mostlystatic 9y agoGiveDirectly and Animal Charity Evaluators (ACE). For GiveDirectly or other charities recommended by GiveWell there seems to be a reasonable amount of evidence that they actually create a meaningful benefit for the people participating in their programs. And where that isn't that case at least they try to generate new evidence about what works and what doesn't. ACE is different in that there's a lot of justified criticism of their methodology and accusations of overinterpreting the data they have. But I hope that given resources and time they can improve on that.
- citruspi 9y agoI donate to Watsi on a monthly basis and they send me an email with information about where my donation went[0]. I'd like to contribute to Watsi Coverage[1] at some point when they accept donations directly for it. [0]: https://watsi.org/monthly https://watsi.org/monthly [1]: https://watsi.org/coverage https://watsi.org/coverage
- vinhnx 9y agoI have been donating ShareTheMeal (https://sharethemeal.org/en/ https://sharethemeal.org/en/) for more than a year now. The mobile app made it very easy to donate just a few dollars to help children in need. Also, I had donated to DoctorsWithoutBorders in the past. Finally, my local charity organization.
- drakonka 9y agoI donate financially to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and the Nonhuman Rights Project, and time-wise to a local cat shelter. I think the next nonprofits I'll aim to donate to will be the Good Food Institute and Soi Dog Foundation.
- staticdynamic 9y agoUchira children's fund (uchirachildrensfun.wordpress.com)- a small charity run by a genuinely nice guy who does a lot of great work
- mabynogy 9y agoOnly religious charities (any religion).
