The benefits of donating through Development Ratings:
We are specialists in recommending international development charities. When you donate through the Fund, you donate to high-impact charities which have been selected based on professional and thorough research and extensive discussions with the management of each of the charities.
We have done extensive background research on each of the charities in the Fund. You can download each of the recommendations under Our research.
We ensure that your donations go to charities that work in countries where the need for charitable work is the highest in the world.
We ask the necessary tough questions to the charities to ensure that they are accountable and use their donations in the most effective manner.
Spreading your donations across a range of countries and issues ensures that your donations tackle complementary issues.
We donate to charities as “Development Ratings”and in effect act as one donor ensuring that your donations are taken seriously.
There is a lot of red-tape and bureaucracy in official development aid – we help you bypass this by targeting the charities that truly deserve your donations.
The Charities Aid Foundation (“CAF”) ensures that Gift Aid is reclaimed so that the charities receive maximum benefit from your donations.
The Development Ratings Fund brings private sector accountability and rationality to the emotional sphere of international development and charitable giving
