All Grants Fund

All Grants Fund

Status: Active, accepting donations on a rolling basis

Overview: The All Grants Fund makes grants on a rolling basis and allows donors to contribute to the most impactful grant opportunities identified by GiveWell. This fund supports a wide range of grantmaking, including funding opportunities that are substantially more uncertain, experimental, or less likely to achieve their expected impact than GiveWell's Top Charities.

Key Features

• Highest Expected Value: While individual grants may be less certain due to their experimental or unproven nature, the aggregate portfolio of grants is believed to represent the highest-impact use of marginal funding
• 100% Distribution: After transaction fees, 100% of donations to the fund are distributed to recipient organizations. GiveWell does not use any of these funds for its own operating support
• Geographic Scope: Global, with focus on global health and well-being
