Take the pledge

Giving What We Can are a community of people who have pledged to give at least 10% of their income to organisations that do the most good. That’s a big commitment, so if you’re interested in testing it out first, you could consider their Try Giving pledge. This involves making a short-term commitment to give a percentage of your income of your choosing to the most effective charities. Find out more here.  

Share our ideas

One of the best ways everyone can help beyond donating is simply to talk about effective giving with their family and friends. You can easily multiply your impact by raising awareness of the good we can achieve by donating to the most effective charities. Invite your friends to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter or send them the link to our mailing list. Have a look at Giving What We Can’s helpful summary of key facts and resources.
