Do you have a source for the <1% figure you cited for how much money goes to animal charities? I'm interested in seeing where the bulk of charity money goes

- ceras 7y agoSadly I don't have a single good high-granularity source on-hand, but here's a few. Plurality goes to religious groups (which I find particularly uninformative, since many religious groups provide significant social services): - Charity Navigator donation stats ($400b annual in US; farm animals are bucketed into "Environment / Animals" which itself is 3%): https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=content.view&cpid=42 https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=content.view&... - Animal Charity Evaluators for farm animal vs non-farm-animal stats (~1% of those are farm animals, which IIRC is itself the smaller half of "Environment / Animals" by a good margin): https://animalcharityevaluators.org/donation-advice/why-farmed-animals/ https://animalcharityevaluators.org/donation-advice/why-farm... - 80,000 Hours farm animal cause profile (~$20m estimate for farm animal charities): https://80000hours.org/problem-profiles/factory-farming/ https://80000hours.org/problem-profiles/factory-farming/
