How can you help others?

There are many ways to do good. Some programs have especially strong evidence behind them and can have a very high impact per dollar — meaning each dollar goes further in saving lives or improving well-being. This tool explores four charities recommended by GiveWell, showing how the same donation can achieve very different outcomes depending on where and how it's used (and these are already well-studied global health programs).
