FYI, depending on where you live, charitable donations can have tax-benefits (i.e. in the form of a deduction). It can be worth making sure you're donating to charities which are enrolled in such programs. For example, Singapore has a 250% tax deductions on donations (this is pretty extreme though, I'd bet there are very few countries with > 100%).
I think you'd find most people donate based on what's touched their lives, e.g. breast cancer research if you lost a loved on to breast cancer.
If you believe climate change is the existential crisis, then that's a good avenue to explore. e.g., https://www.rainforestcoalition.org/ https://www.rainforestcoalition.org/
- sillysaurusx 5y agoThank you for the tips! I really appreciate it. I ended up donating $200 to this kid who lost his finger and then got a staph infection: https://watsi.org/profile/08a347b3594d-savy https://watsi.org/profile/08a347b3594d-savy And then fulfilled the bet by donating $20 to Watsi.
- latch 5y agoI matched your donation ;)
- sillysaurusx 5y agoThank you!! It's so satisfying that Savy went from 0% raised to 100% raised. Staph infections are no joke.
