I donate to these: - The Humane League, which campaigns for corporate commitments to improve the lives of chickens, e.g. shifting major restaurants to using cage-free eggs. They're doing an incredible job: ~50 years of chickens lives are improved for just $1 donated. But billions of chickens are raised per year in the US alone, so there's a lot left to do. Short-term and medium-term, this is tremendous impact on suffering per dollar donated. - Good Food Institute, which is helping grow the meat alternatives industries, both plant-based and (eventually) cultivated meat. Crucial for animal welfare and the environment. They help at every stage: with entrepreneurs trying out new food companies, with scientists conducting research, with restaurants interested in adding plant-based items, etc. Long-term, good & cheap meat alternatives are our best shot for raising fewer farm animals. Why farm animals? Farm animals in general (especially chickens) lead very poor lives, and their farming is a major contributor to GHG emissions. Raising fewer animals for food has both direct benefits to animal cruelty and indirect to combating climate change. There's a lot of low-hanging fruit in this space to make huge impact: farm animal charities receive very little funding (a small fraction of 1% of all US donations) relative to the scale of the problem (billions suffering; double-digit % contributor to GHG emissions), so there's both a lot of cheap & straightforward solutions, and a lot of unexplored terrain to potentially find even greater impact. Both charities above are recommended by Animal Charity Evaluators[0], which does in-depth investigation of both the charities as organizations, and the specific programs they administer.
