In general, we recommend people think of three primary routes by which they can have impact on the job. The first is through the labour you provide. This can be the work you do if you are employed by an effective organisation, or the research you do if you are a researcher. The second is the money you can give. The third is the influence you can have on other people. In order to work out the total impact you can have, you should look at all three of these; whereas advice that is focused solely on the charity sector looks only at the first.
