GiveDirectly

GiveDirectly is a nonprofit organization that aims to alleviate poverty by providing cash transfers directly to people in need. Rather than sending aid through traditional means, like food or services, GiveDirectly gives recipients the freedom to spend the money as they see fit, allowing them to address their most pressing needs. This approach capitalizes on the idea that individuals are best positioned to make choices that improve their lives. Primarily operating in Africa, GiveDirectly leverages technology to facilitate donations and transfers, ensuring transparency and efficiency in their operations.
