“Taimaka save a life for 1600$?” by wibnlypando47

Do you think this charity is legitimate? It seems like they are but I'd like your opinion before I donate a few thousand more dollars to them. https://taimaka.org/ They say they can save a human life for about 1600$ using the same formula as givewell. What do you think? Other effective altruist charities can't save a life for less than 3500$ and usually more like 5000 $ I've read some research on them https://www.happierlivesinstitute.org/taimaka-summary/ but it was more focused on how they improve lives I'm curious about whether or not they will save a life of someone who would have otherwise died for 1600 ish dollars. --- First published: March 18th, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/76JFQqGJxY3nqvmqH/taimaka-save-a-life-for-1600usd --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.
