i’ve taken the 10% pledge. i recommend donating to giving what we can, effektiv spenden, or give well. I donate to effektiv spenden because it’s tax deductible for me. before I took the pledge i donated a variable % of my income monthly and individual small donations. saving one life is estimated to cost between 5,500. I proudly say that I have probably saved one human life with my donations.
other places that probably make sense to donate to are: EA, 80k Hours, miri but tetraspace has a blurb about why donor lotteries are good and i encourage you to donate to them.
in the future i will track all the charitable donations i will do below (i will not backtrack through my donation history because it’s too much work):
550$ to effektiv spenden on 2026-18-08
