About GiveDirectly

GiveDirectly is a non-profit organization that delivers cash grants directly to people living in extreme poverty across the world. Since 2011, the organization has distributed over $1 billion in direct cash transfers to more than 2 million people in 15 countries, operating on the belief that cash transfers are one of the most scalable, cost-effective, and dignified forms of aid. GiveDirectly supports large-scale experimental research demonstrating the impact of their programs and aims to establish cash transfers as a benchmark for international aid. The organization combines technology, careful operational design, and humanitarian expertise to serve recipients while also managing donor relationships through double-sided products.
