We definitely see where you are coming from and how some projects may seem to be more 'worth' the support because of a higher impact count. However, some projects which cost more may gain less support even though they may be doing incredible things (e.g. projects that involve surgical procedures such as cataract operations). Hence, we encourage our Members to also look to support causes that resonate with them if they are able to do so sustainably.
There are many causes which require support everywhere around the world, and we certainly believe all causes are equally important (for instance, it's hard to rank saving the environment, alleviating poverty, restoring human rights etc.), which is why we can only facilitate the ecosystem of giving to help create transparency and connection between great projects and business givers. Without the B1G1 model of breaking down projects, the cost of the projects and the impacts are essentially measured equally.
However due to the cost of living in various countries and the different projects, project costs may differ greatly. For example, the project cost for building a water pump will be lower in Cambodia as opposed to a project that supports surgical procedures, since that requires more professional expertise in their operations (e.g. vets and doctors and medical equipment).
Ultimately, we believe you'll find greater joy of giving to a project that means most to you!
