We conduct in-depth research to identify the areas where our funding can help others the most. Coefficient Giving directed over $1 billion in 2025, the most in our history. This significant milestone is the result of extraordinary dedication from our funders, staff, and grantees, who share the conviction that effective philanthropy can be a powerful lever for making the world a much better place.
Open Philanthropy Is Now Coefficient Giving Our new name marks our next chapter as we double down on our longstanding goal of helping more funders increase their impact. We believe philanthropy can be a far more vital force for progress than it is today. Announcing the Strep A Vaccine Fund Strep A causes over 600,000 deaths per year — a toll comparable to HIV/AIDS and malaria — but attracts a tiny fraction of the research funding.
Today, we're launching the Strep A Vaccine Fund: a multi-donor initiative to accelerate the development of Strep A vaccines. Science and Global Health R&D Using AI to create more effective vaccines Professors David Baker and Neil King use advanced protein modeling software and nanoparticle technology to develop better vaccines.
Their approach has already led to an approved COVID-19 vaccine and more effective flu vaccine that has completed Phase I trials. David Baker won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2024. Effective Giving & Careers Helping people find high-impact careers Four professionals share how our career advising grantees — Probably Good, High Impact Medicine, and High Impact Professionals — helped them find paths to greater impact.
Science and Global Health R&D Transforming tuberculosis testing through a low-cost device Saad Bhamla is a key figure in the frugal innovation movement, which seeks to build cheaper versions of existing scientific tools. His latest innovation, a portable device to test tuberculosis and other diseases, could well be another consequential contribution to global public health.
Eliminating lead paint, one country at a time In dozens of low- and middle-income countries, much of the paint supply contains dangerous amounts of lead. The Lead Exposure Elimination Project is working to end this public health crisis, which has received little attention from the global health community relative to its devastating effects.
Freeing hundreds of millions of chickens from cages The Open Wing Alliance (OWA), a coalition of advocacy groups, has persuaded more than 3,000 food companies worldwide to shift to using cage-free eggs, through a mix of negotiation and public campaigns. Thanks to OWA and other advocates, over 250 million hens have been spared from confinement.

Coefficient Giving (formerly Open Philanthropy), the largest funder in existential risk reduction, has issued a Request for Proposals for Technical AI Safety Research focused on alignment, interpretability, and control of advanced AI systems. The RFP accepts proposals on a rolling basis with no fixed deadline. Coefficient Giving expects to spend roughly $40 million on this initiative and is open to spending substantially more depending on application quality. The program funds a wide range of activities including fundamental alignment research, interpretability and mechanistic understanding of AI systems, AI control and containment strategies, evaluation and benchmarking of AI safety properties, scalable oversight methods, and seed funding for new AI safety research organizations. This is distinct from Coefficient Giving's separate AI Governance Research RFP which focuses on policy and governance questions.
Coefficient Giving (the rebranded Open Philanthropy) is funding technical research that advances the science of building safe and trustworthy AI systems, including understanding and preventing frontier AI system misalignment, creating valid evaluations and interventions, and developing oversight mechanisms for superhuman AI capabilities. The RFP is open to proposals of many sizes and purposes, ranging from rapid funding for API credits and compute to discrete 6-24 month projects, academic start-up packages, and seed funding for new research organizations. Coefficient expected to deploy roughly $40 million over the initial period, with capacity to spend substantially more depending on application quality.
