The global effective giving community has worked hard to create an awesome virtual event for Effective Giving Day! There are also several awesome groups around the world that are hosting their own events in person and online in Toronto, Vancouver, São Paulo, Sydney, Melbourne, Munich, Heidelberg, Estonia, Italy and more!
Join us for Effective Giving Day on Monday 28th November
Our community sharing why they give effectively
This year the global effective giving community is celebrating on the 28th of November (29th of November Asia/Pacific)!
Our event on YouTube Live will help you learn:
How just one person really can make a difference: How to 100x your impact through effective donations
The newest findings in the philanthropic space from industry leaders
How effective giving has benefitted our member’s lives: Featuring guest speakers bestselling author Rutger Bregman, ethicist Peter Singer and science broadcaster and professional poker player Liv Boeree
Could you clarify what the "We’ll also hear from our community members on where they donate and why!" part consists of during the main event?
Specifically, I see that there's more opportunity to talk about this topic in the Gathertown event after the main event, but I'm curious if event attendees will get an opportunity to share where they donated and why during the main event, or if the content on this during the main event is going to consist of something pre-planned from already selected-members of the community (such that main-event attendees will just be passively listening and pehaps answering a few poll questions).
We already have a bunch of community members involved in the main event (they'll be sharing about their giving onscreen) but there will be a chance for everyone to discuss during the gathertown event afterwards!
We'll also be prompting people to let us know in the chat during the YouTube event!

* The Long-Term Future Fund is closing down, and EA Funds is launching the Transformative AI Fund with a new full-time team.
* The fund's primary focus is technical AI safety and AI governance (including post-AGI governance), as well as supporting fields such as field-building and forecasting. We'll also consider non-GCR implications of transformative AI such as flourishing futures and digital...
The current Long Term Future Fund (LTFF) fund managers and I have decided to step back from our work on the LTFF. Because we believe LTFF donors trusted the fund managers to ensure that the funds would be used in line with the purposes of their donation, we've decided the right move is to close the fund.
While LTFF is closing, note that EA Funds has launched a new fund...
119 'Going', 685 'Interested' on the Facebook RSVPs, nice!

Also between FB, LinkedIn and EA Forum about ~1000 people have responded to the event!

Makes sense, thanks for confirming!
