Yeah, don’t look past the veneer of the Prevent Cancer Foundation (and GDQ’s founders are pretty cozy with them). Sure they’re saints compared to The Completionist (& co.), but they mostly just do education/outreach which, while important, is completely US based and no doubt doubles as soliciting/fundraising, and don’t really fund research nearly as much as you would probably guess (their 2022 financial statements indicate 4.6m spent on education, 800k spent on outreach, 1.44m on fundraising and only 1.1m on research). If you’re outside the US you’re unlikely to ever be impacted by their work. Their salaries are also way higher than DWB USA.

Don’t look too deep into it because there was a bit of a scandal around it when people realized the salaries involved…
Also, the foundation AGDQ is associated with is crap, SGDQ is much better on that front.
