I've reviewed the documents for 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020 to investigate changes in reporting from "Money Moved" to "Funds Raised/Funds Directed".

From what I can tell, it looks like "Funds Directed" is a good proxy for Money Moved.

From the 2023 report:

I'm resolving to 197,474,318, the "funds directed to charities" number, because the 2020 document states that they do not count funding their own operations as "money moved":

We do not count funds we use for our operating costs in our money moved but hare a breakdown of them to give more context on the overall level of funds supporting GiveWell and our research.

bought Ṁ250 LOWER

bought Ṁ35 LOWER

Note that in 2022, we decided to discontinue using and tracking the "money moved" metric, which tracked the funding that was both raised and directed in a given year. Instead, we are now reporting separately on "funds raised" and "funds directed," which we believe will be simpler and clearer. However, we do still refer to money moved figures as our best proxy for funds directed in years prior to 2021. Please also note that, unless otherwise indicated, the figures in this report refer to our "metrics year" (February 1-January 31) rather than the calendar year (January 1-December 31).

Probably worth changing this to "funds raised"
