Giving What We Can is a global community of individuals committed to donating a significant portion of their income to effective charities. Founded in 2009, it encourages people to pledge at least 10% of their earnings to organizations that have a proven impact on reducing poverty and improving lives. The initiative is rooted in the principles of effective altruism, which emphasizes using evidence and reason to determine the most effective ways to help others. Members of Giving What We Can share resources, research, and personal experiences to inspire and support one another in their charitable commitments.
