Hello, it's Ros Taylor here.

Today's edition of The Bunker is sponsored by Give Well, the non-profit organization that helps you make the most impact when you're giving to charity.

Lots of us give to charity, especially at this time of year, but even with the best intentions, you might wonder if your donations are being used as well as they could be.

The founders of Give Well were thinking the same back in 2007. When they asked for background on some of the charities they

were interested in, all they got back was feel good stories and pictures, very little concrete

information. So they created Give Well, a unique resource that pours over independent studies and

charity data to help you direct your donations to organisations that are making a real difference.

That means they've been able to find low-cost but high-impact things you can support,

like simple $2 vitamin A supplements that decrease infant mortality, or $7 malaria shots for children,

all of which makes every pound you give go further. Over 100,000 donors worldwide have used

Give Well to donate more than $2 billion in the past 17 years, and rigorous evidence indicates this will save over 200,000 lives

and improve the lives of millions more. Give Well wants as many donors as possible to make informed

decisions about high impact giving. You can find all of their research and recommendations on their

site for free.

To find out more or make a donation, go to givewell.org slash UK.

You can make tax deductible donations to their recommended funds or charities, and Givewell

doesn't take a cut. Givewell UK can claim gift aid for eligible donations too. That's givewell.org

to donate or find out more. No one likes nasty surprises. Like when your favourite artist brings out a

concept album, but on listening should probably have been kept as just an idea. That's why with
