Reports

Audited financial statements

At Effective Altruism Australia Ltd we seek to provide regular and transparent reporting on our activities, operations and performance. Our website has frequent updates regarding our partner charities, which is designed to provide an insight into the work we do, our impact and our partner charities. On an annual basis, we also produce financial statements which are then audited. From 2023 onwards we have also prepared annual audited financial statements for Effective Altruism Australia Environment Ltd.

Operational Costs

Effective Altruism Australia (EAA) exists to maximise the good that Australians can do through evidence-based giving. To achieve this, we are investing in growth – both in the donations we move to high-impact charities and in expanding the size and strength of the effective altruism community in Australia.

Going forward, our operations and growth efforts – including staff, communications, marketing, and fundraising – will be funded entirely through donations and grants that have been directed specifically to our operations, not from the money given to our partner charities.

For every dollar spent on EAA’s operations, we typically raise an additional $5–$8 for our partner charities – a strong multiplier that demonstrates the effectiveness of investing in our capacity.

You can read our blog post here for more detail on how EAA meets operational costs.
