Why we should use both head and heart when donating to charity 👇 People are often motivated to give to charity because of heart-wrenching emotional appeals – these work for a good reason: none of us want to see others suffer. But when our emotions become heightened, our rational brain can turn off, which means we’re no longer thinking carefully about how we can best prevent the suffering we see. With some charities doing at least 10x more good for the same donation, making a considered choice could be the difference between helping just one person or helping 10 people – with the same amount donated. That’s why giving effectively is so important. By basing our donation decisions on careful research, we can help 10x as many people – and move 10x faster towards reducing the suffering that motivated us in the first place. At givingwhatwecan.org, we share highly effective charities that have been vetted by the research of charitable giving experts. Visit us to learn more about how – through combining the power of head and heart — we can move more quickly towards the world we want to see. #EffectiveGiving #GivingWhatWeCan
