High Impact Athletes
Environmental Portfolio
The Environmental Portfolio is one of High Impact Athletes’ four giving portfolios, which allow donors to spread their giving across multiple charities. When you give to HIA's Environmental Portfolio, your donation will support what HIA believes to be the most effective climate initiatives, as well as improvements to the global food system.
Which charities does HIA’s Environmental Portfolio support?
Donations to HIA’s Environmental Portfolio are split between Clean Air Task Force (45%), Founders Pledge's Climate Fund (45%), and Good Food Institute (10%).
Please note that GWWC does not evaluate individual charities. Our recommendations are based on the research of third-party, impact-focused charity evaluators our research team has found to be particularly well-suited to help donors do the most good per dollar, according to their recent evaluator investigations. Our other supported programs are those that align with our charitable purpose — they are working on a high-impact problem and take a reasonably promising approach (based on publicly-available information).
At Giving What We Can, we focus on the effectiveness of an organisation's work -- what the organisation is actually doing and whether their programs are making a big difference. Some others in the charity recommendation space focus instead on the ratio of admin costs to program spending, part of what we’ve termed the “overhead myth.” See why overhead isn’t the full story and learn more about our approach to charity evaluation.
