“Suggestions for Individual Donors from Coefficient Giving Staff – 2025” by Coefficient Giving


Listen Later

This holiday giving season, we’re continuing our tradition of sharing a list of giving opportunities suggested by Coefficient Giving program staff.

Notes on these suggestions:

  • They fall within the areas covered by Coefficient's funds.
  • They should be seen as reasonably strong options in the relevant area. The person who made a suggestion isn’t necessarily arguing that their suggestion is the best option available across all areas, or even within its own area.
  • Many of them were chosen because they are particularly good fits for individual donors. This shouldn’t be read as a list of our strongest grantees overall (though of course there may be overlap).
  • The explanations we share are very brief and informal; we don’t expect readers to be persuaded unless they put a lot of weight on the judgment of the person making the suggestion.
  • Finally, these suggestions come from individual program staff or teams, and do not necessarily represent Coefficient's institutional view.
