Other Ways To Donate

Take a Pledge
You can have an astonishing impact by donating to effective charities.
You can have a lasting impact if you make a commitment to give effectively and consistently.
Over 10,000 people across the world have taken a Giving What We Can pledge to donate a meaningful portion of their incomes to improving the lives of others. We find a pledge helps for three main reasons:
Commitment: Making public commitments helps us to live up to our values and stick with the goals we may otherwise let slide.
Community: Joining a community provides us with support and advice that helps us to follow through with our commitments to help others.
Culture: Taking a public pledge helps inspire others to follow our example. Together we can forge a world in which giving effectively and significantly is a cultural norm.
When you take a Pledge with our friends at Giving What We Can, you can continue choosing Effective Altruism Australia’s high-impact partners to donate to—but you’ll gain access to a personalised dashboard, helpful resources, and a global community of like-minded givers.
Run a personal fundraiser
Turn your next big life event into an opportunity to make a difference. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday or wedding – or taking on a challenge like a bike ride, marathon, or fun run – you can create a personal fundraiser to support our highly effective partner charities. Invite friends, family, and coworkers to donate in your honour and help transform lives. It’s an inspiring way to turn your special occasion into something even more meaningful.
Join our June and December campaigns
Take part in our end-of-financial year and festive season campaigns and help introduce others in your life to effective giving! In June, we often run a matching offer for first-time donors – a perfect moment to enlist friends, family or coworkers while their donations go even further (and if you’re a five- or six-figure donor interested in counterfactual matching, we’d love to hear from you).
Our December campaign is all about gifts that give back. We run campaigns encouraging people to give generously during the holiday season.

Workplace giving or partnerships
Giving through your workplace is a simple, tax-effective way to support our highly effective partners. By donating pre-tax through your employer’s workplace giving program, your donation goes further—and Effective Altruism Australia can be found on any leading workplace giving platform.
If your business is interested in partnering with us or one of our recommended charities as part of your corporate social responsibility or charitable giving program, we’d love to hear from you. Together, we can create a lasting, high-impact partnership.
