Overview
Mission
We exist to move as much impact-adjusted money as possible to those working to reduce catastrophic and existential risks. In practice, we promote effective philanthropy that reduces the risk of a major global catastrophe through three main types of activities: advising, grantmaking, and events.
What it reported doing in 2025
Events - bringing together major philanthropists, academics, industry leaders, public intellectuals, policymakers, and others to foster an ecosystem of thoughtful people working for positive change.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 87% of its reported program spending out as grants.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
