We do the research for you: The top animal charities can help hundreds (if not thousands) of animals with the same donation that some well-known animal charities need to help just one. But identifying the most effective animal charities requires extensive research that's impractical for individual donors. We've done that work by building off the top charity selections of Animal Charity Evaluators (who conduct rigorous, public evaluations) and consulting with expert grantmakers to curate our recommendations.
We're an independently funded non-profit: This means we pass on 100% of your donations to our recommended charities, and we have no conflicts of interest. We work with trusted partners like Every.org and Stripe to ensure your donation reaches its destination.

Absolutely! Simply begin your donation through our platform. Once you reach the payment stage at Every.org, choose the 'DAF' option. If you have any questions or difficulties, please contact us (details here) and we'll be happy to help.
Note that donating to FarmKind’s EIN directly via your DAF provider is strongly dispreferred as this will donate to FarmKind's operations rather than going directly to our recommended charities, plus it incurs a fee from our fiscal sponsor, Player's Philanthropy Fund.
