Can't believe, no one has posted this yet.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GiveWell

"GiveWell is an American non-profit charity evaluator and effective altruism-focused organization.[5][6] Unlike any other charity evaluators, GiveWell focuses primarily on the cost-effectiveness of the organizations that it evaluates, rather than traditional metrics such as the percentage of the organization's budget that is spent on overhead.[6][7] GiveWell recommends several charities per year. In 2014, its top recommendations were the Against Malaria Foundation, GiveDirectly, the Schistosomiasis Control Initiative, and the Deworm the World Initiative."



I'm guessing no one posted it because there was a whole section in the original article on GiveWell.


Also http://www.agorafund.org Allows you to give to basket of charities selected based on principles from effective altruism.


Just an FYI that the "administration fee is 5%. Additional PayPal processing fees may apply." http://www.agorafund.org/terms-of-service/
