Can I donate to your charities using a donor-advised fund (DAF)?

You can donate to charities and funds available on our donation platform from a donor-advised fund by following these steps:

1. Create your donation using our donation platform:

• Select the recipients (e.g. charities, organisations, or funds)
• Specify the amount to each recipient
• Begin payment process
• If you are a US resident:
  • If you choose "Donor Advised Fund (Instant)", complete the donation flow steps right to the end. The process will be completed after this and you do not need to proceed to step #2 below
  • If you choose "Donor Advised Fund (Manual)", complete the donation flow steps right to the end and save your reference number for step #2 below
• If you are not a US resident:
  • Choose "Donor Advised Fund (DAF)"
  • Complete the donation flow steps right to the end and save your reference number for step #2 below

2. Donate via your DAF

• If you are a US resident, select 'Giving What We Can USA' as the grant recipient
  • USA EIN: 93-3629215
• If you are not a US resident, select 'Effective Ventures Foundation' as the grant recipient
  • UK Charity Number: 1149828
  • Netherlands ANBI: 825776867
• If possible, specify the reference number from step #1

Please note that there may be a significant delay between the time the donation is made and the time it is reconciled (at which point you will receive your email confirmation/receipt).
