Top Charities Fund
GiveWell directs donations to its Top Charities Fund into grants for global health and development programs that meet its criteria for cost-effectiveness and impact. Fund grants support programs run by GiveWell's Top Charities, with decisions informed by GiveWell research for every grant. The fund page, last updated September 2026, lists recent grants including $57.9 million approved in May 2026 to the Against Malaria Foundation. There is no application process for organizations on the fund page; GiveWell selects grants through its own research. Donations to the fund are granted out on a recurring cycle to the supported charities.
