“Announcing ACE’s 2025 Charity Recommendations” by Animal Charity Evaluators, Vince Mak 🔸

<p> 16 minute read</p><p> We update our list of Recommended Charities annually. This year, we announced recommendations on November 4.</p><p> Each year, hundreds of billions of animals are trapped in the food industry and killed for food —that is more than all the humans who have ever walked on the face of the Earth.1</p><p> When faced with such a magnitude of suffering, it can feel overwhelming and hard to know how to help. One of the most impactful things you can do to help animals is to donate to effective animal charities—even a small donation can have a big impact. Our goal is to help you do the most good for animals by providing you with effective giving opportunities that greatly reduce their suffering. Following our comprehensive charity evaluations, we are pleased to announce our Recommended Charities!</p>Charities awarded the status in 2025Charities retaining the status from 2024Animal Welfare ObservatoryAquatic Life InstituteShrimp Welfare ProjectÇiftlik Hayvanlarını Koruma DerneğiSociedade Vegetariana BrasileiraDansk Vegetarisk ForeningThe Humane LeagueGood Food FundWild Animal InitiativeSinergia Animal<p> The Humane League (working globally), Shrimp Welfare Project (in Central and South America, Southeast Asia, and India), and Wild Animal Initiative (global) have continued to work on the most important issues for animals [...]</p> <p>---</p><p><strong>Outline:</strong></p><p>(03:54) Charities Recommended in 2025</p><p>(03:59) Animal Welfare Observatory</p><p>(05:44) Shrimp Welfare Project</p><p>(07:38) Sociedade Vegetariana Brasileira</p><p>(09:41) The Humane League</p><p>(11:22) Wild Animal Initiative</p><p>(13:15) Charities Recommended in 2024</p><p>(13:20) Aquatic Life Institute</p><p>(15:25) Çiftlik Hayvanlarını Koruma Derneği</p><p>(17:34) Dansk Vegetarisk Forening</p><p>(19:18) The Good Food Fund</p><p>(21:19) Sinergia Animal</p><p>(23:20) Support our Recommended Charities</p> <p><i>The original text contained 2 footnotes which were omitted from this narration.</i> </p><p>---</p> <p><b>First published:</b><br/> November 4th, 2025 </p> <p><b>Source:</b><br/> <a href="https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/waL3iwczrjNt8PreZ/announcing-ace-s-2025-charity-recommendations?utm_source=TYPE_III_AUDIO&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_content=Source+URL+in+episode+description&utm_campaign=ai_narration" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/waL3iwczrjNt8PreZ/announcing-ace-s-2025-charity-recommendations</a> </p> <p>---</p> <p>Narrated by <a href="https://type3.audio/?utm_source=TYPE_III_AUDIO&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_content=Narrated+by+TYPE+III+AUDIO&utm_term=ea_forum&utm_campaign=ai_narration" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TYPE III AUDIO</a>.</p> <p>---</p><div style="max-width: 100%";><p><strong>Images from the article:</strong></p><a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/cea/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/mirroredImages/waL3iwczrjNt8PreZ/w2nfjjypruwrrfkmkatp" target="_blank"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/cea/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/mirroredImages/waL3iwczrjNt8PreZ/w2nfjjypruwrrfkmkatp" alt="Announcement graphic with globe surrounded by animal silhouettes, highlighting 2025 charity recommendations." style="max-width: 100%;" /></a><hr style="margin-top: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;" /><a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/cea/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/mirroredImages/waL3iwczrjNt8PreZ/zxqhydaeqtbxiysw9nvh" target="_blank"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/cea/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/mirroredImages/waL3iwczrjNt8PreZ/zxqhydaeqtbxiysw9nvh" alt="Logos for The Humane League, Animal Welfare Observatory, Shrimp Welfare Project, Wild Animal Initiative, Dansk Vegetarisk Forening, Kafessiz Türkiye, Aquatic Life Institute, Good Food Fund, Sociedade Vegetariana Brasileira, and Sinergia Animal." style="max-width: 100%;" /></a><p><em>Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.
