Has been wonderful to be on the ImpactMatters board from the outset and we are all so stoked to see IM help Charity Navigator make good on a long-time promise to integrate impact into their ratings. Congratulations to all concerned!

Breaking: @ImpactM merges into @CharityNav, as the long, hard struggle to create a market for nonprofits, driven by impact, continues. This was a valiant effort by @DeanKarlan, @ElijahGoldberg and many more. #philanthropy

When we founded ImpactMatters in 2015, our vision was to create a “market for impact”, where funding flowed to nonprofits that were making the most progress on pressing issues. By joining forces with Charity Nav, we are immediately scaling ImpactMatters analysis to millions.

Great to see impact analysis in action in @deankarlan's "Economics of Nonprofits" class and @KelloggSchool students taking our work to new heights. Congrats to @Young1ove & @Living_Goods!
grateful to "Economics of Nonprofits" class @NorthwesternU led by @deankarlan which rigorously screened nonprofits w/ high-impact to donate $25k and chose @Young1ove @Living_Goods. Lovely "virtual awards ceremony" w/ Prez Morton Schapiro. I hope this type of class becomes a norm!

#COVID19 testing may be free, but treatment isn't. An uninsured person with complications could face $74k in hospital bills according to @FAIRHealth. Nonprofits like 5-star @HealthWellOrg are giving cash to those in need. More trusted charities on https://t.co/q6mLSxV1lu.

As US hospitals scramble to find enough ventilators to keep #COVID19 patients alive, there are still 7x fewer ventilators per person in low-income countries like Nepal — and no General Motors or federal stockpiles to tap. Here’s how you can help.

Meanwhile those of us lucky enough to be drawing a salary from a solvent institution should donate to evidence-backed charities that mitigate the pain of those hurt by the crisis.

Depending on which charity you choose, your $50 donation can buy a year of clean water for 1 person, or 50 people. Now there's a way to know which charities are the most effective. @nytopinion @impactmatters @charitynavigator

Finally, a charity rating agency is measuring how effectively money is used.
