The final blog post in the series for the Young Global Leader's DtW Bihar fundraising campaign is from Alissa Fishbane, Managing Director of DtW. This post makes the case for considering the rate of return on charitable investments in the same way that we do when making business and personal finance decisions. Deworming has an estimated rate of return of 42% due to the increase in total future earnings by adults treated for worms as children.
Read the full blog post, and also check out blog posts by DtW advisory board members Esther Duflo, Rachel Glennerster and Sriram Raghavan.
The Bihar fundraising campaign ends August 31 - please consider investing in the future of millions of children today!
