I’ve looked into EA / GiveWell charity recommendations, but then when I’ve independently looked into IRS Form 990 returns the charities they recommend often seem tiny and have spending of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands per year.

It’s always seemed to me there is likely to be more oversight in larger organizations. I’ve been meaning to ask about this but never had time.

Also if you read their recommendations, a lot of times their source is “personal conversations with the leader of the charity”
