Site Visits: November 2012
FacebookTwitter>Print>Email
In November 2012, GiveWell staff traveled to Kenya as part of our research process to identify top-rated charities, with the primary purpose of visiting GiveDirectly. We also visited two projects currently run by Evidence Action. Below, we have posted notes and pictures from our visits with GiveDirectly and the Evidence Action's projects: Dispensers for Safe Water and Deworm the World Initiative.
