GiveDirectly is the leading global NGO specialized in delivering digital cash transfers. We’ve worked in challenging contexts across 11 countries, from Houston after Harvey to the most remote parts of Uganda, and launched 19 experimental evaluations (RCTs) with independent researchers documenting the impacts on recipients and on the local economy.
