Wealth for the World
The nonprofit fund.
Disbursements go to projects that effectively do good
When selecting the projects we support, we rely on independent evaluation institutions — such as GiveWell, one of the world's leading authorities on impact evaluation in poverty alleviation.
From Donations to Disbursements
The donation-funded Wealth for the World Fund follows the long-term growth of the global stock market. Each year, it disburses two percent of its assets to effective non-profits. Its expected return is seven percent, so after disbursements the fund grows by five percent per year.
From this, expected disbursements to our donation partners can be projected:

What press, donors and scientists say about Wealth for the World
[T]he idea of the founders of 'Wealth for the World' is longer-term: the assumption is that the invested money grows over a longer period of time and that more can be donated afterwards than was received in donations.
We already have sufficient resources to enable everyone to live a good life, we just have to use them sensibly. But how is this best possible? Wealth for the World provides a promising answer.
Most donors want to see an impact immediately. As a result, in my view, less is typically saved for future relief than would be ideal. By investing a large proportion of their funds for effective charity in the future, Wealth for the World gives donors an easy way to offset this bias and, I expect, increase their impact.
Even small donations to Wealth for the World develop a large donation volume for a good cause in the long term. An absolutely convincing concept!
Projects like Wealth for the World ensure that we will have sufficient funds in the future to, for example, effectively combat extreme poverty.
Many people do not have the opportunity to invest surpluses on the capital markets and thus benefit from the long-term positive developments. Wealth for the World addresses this by collecting donations, investing them long-term on the capital market and both donating and re-investing the returns - a sustainable approach that I am happy to support!
Let your money work. For a good cause.
With your donation to Wealth for the World, you support organizations that demonstrably do the most good in the long term.
