Happy 15th birthday, @givingwhatwecan! I can remember when you were just a baby.  In fact, I knew you when you were just a twinkle in @tobyordoxford's eye.  That was when I visited Oxford in June 2007, and he told me of his plans to start an organization that would tell people how important it is to give effectively, because the most effective organizations helping people in extreme poverty do hundreds of times as much good as the average organizations working in that area.  He was already thinking of asking them to make a pledge. I expressed my enthusiasm to Toby, and the small group of supporters he had brought together to speak to me.  And when GWWC was launched, I was very happy to make the 10% pledge. It's been great to see GWWC continue to thrive, and cause a very substantial sum to be given more effectively than it would otherwise have been given. I'm pleased to have been a part of the movement.

Today marks the launch of The Rationales for Giving, a series exploring reasons to support the fight against extreme poverty. My article introduces the moral imperative to help those in severe need, , followed by insights from other thought leaders on why we should give. Read more here: thelifeyoucansave.org/ration…
