Thank you Laura Abernethy for my ice bucket nomination- unfortunately I will not be experiencing this for now. I am completely in awe of how generous people can be, and how a little bit of peer pressure can go a long way. There are so many charities in need out there. I read some articles on ALS and the Ice Bucket Challenge, which further confirmed my belief that I will not be giving to ALS this time, nor should I need to be prompted to give. I think the challenges are great, but people should be giving regularly anyway. So, following suit from Jonathan Scott I have chosen to give Giving What We Can and GiveWell recommended charity evidenceaction.org, who run DeWorm the World and Dispensers for Safe Water Initiatives. I believe that these tackle some symptoms and causes of poverty (ie worms and diarrhoea) head on, reaping long term benefits without long term dependence. I nominate Harry Illidge and Alice Hall to act upon this information.
