For those who are not familiar with Effective Altruism (EA), it is "the nerdy philosophy to do good better." Your donation doesn't have to be big, to be impactful. For example, a $2 bed-net could save someone's life from malaria.
In a nutshell, EA suggests that good causes that should be prioritized usually have three characteristics:
- They’re great in scale: They affect many people’s lives, by a great amount
- They’re highly neglected: Few people are working to address the problem
- They’re highly solvable: Additional resources might even solve the problem once and for all
