Givewell has established a charity research site in Australia providing profiles on over 200 of Australia’s major charities.
Givewell has established a charity research site in Australia providing profiles on over 200 of Australia’s major charities. It is a useful resource for researchers and grantmakers who receive applications from Australian-based organisations. It publishes a number of surveys on giving: its two reports for January 1999 cover “Who Finances Australia’s Charities?” and “The Ethics of Accountability for Australian Charities.”
Givewell claims it is the first organisation in Australia to provide a comprehensive research service for informed giving. Their aim is “to play a key role in fostering a better culture of giving in Australia. We do this by conducting research on charities and generating ideas on better ways to give.”
