Empowering generous donors to maximize the impact of their philanthropy.

Find charities that deliver outstanding results and multiply the impact of your giving.

At Ellis Impact, we believe your giving should create real, measurable change—not just a feel-good story or a polished report. Too many charities focus on looking good on paper, but make little meaningful difference. That’s why we go beyond surface-level metrics like overhead costs and transparency to identify the charities that make outsized progress on the world's most urgent problems.

We base our advice on the expertise of independent, impact-focused charity evaluators and grantmakers who are leaders in their field. Their research ensures that every charity we recommend is backed by data and evidence. With our guidance, your philanthropy can achieve 100x the impact it might otherwise have, ensuring your giving goes to interventions delivering the greatest social returns on investment.

"I was very impressed working with Fernando and Ellis Impact. I shared with them what was meaningful to me and they helped me find opportunities to give effectively within my interests. I was also very impressed with their process and their impact reporting. I’ll certainly be working with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone."
