2/ EA is all about increasing the impact of donations. In the US, $390B is donated per year. That sounds like a lot of money, but relative to other sectors, it isn’t.

3/ A third of all donations goes to religious institutions and another chunk goes to concert and museum tickets. Only 6% or $23B goes to international charities, and global health, which is one of EA’s priority areas, is a fraction of that.

Replying to @anthonygawonlee
religion might have done a better job at encouraging giving than anything ever. if EA or any movement can even get close, that would be incredible.
