Giving Evidence: charitable giving based on sound evidence

Directed by philanthropy expert Caroline Fiennes, Giving Evidence encourages and enables charitable giving based on sound evidence. With an extensive track record of helping donors and funders, Giving Evidence offers consulting advice, and conducts research and analysis on issues that affect the whole sector. Giving Evidence’s work matters because charities vary hugely in their effectiveness, so donors’ choices about what to fund greatly affect how much difference they make. The same is true of donors’ choices about how to fund, because some ways of giving are much better than others. Giving Evidence’s reports, media articles and online talks are regularly published on its website. Giving Evidence is seeking funding for projects that could benefit the whole charity sector. These include: pulling together all the available information, insight and advice about “how to fund” to help donors with those decisions; reducing the expenditure that charities (are forced to) waste on bad evaluations or funder-imposed administrative processes; and optimising funders’ decisions.
