In 2014, GiveWell recommended and Good Ventures made two grants: $250,000 to Evidence Action and about $34,000 to IDinsight.

True: records show that in 2014 Good Ventures, on GiveWell's recommendation, granted $250,000 to Evidence Action and roughly $30,000–$38,000 to IDinsight. Mostly true: both grants occurred but one amount is modestly off or the timing straddles the year boundary. Mixed: only one of the two grants matches. Mostly false: the grants happened in a different year or with substantially different amounts. False: neither grant occurred as described.

   “IDinsight—Scaling Up a High-Potential Development Intervention | IDinsight | $34,382 | September 2014”

3. E3 GiveWell's Experimental Work – November 2016 version GiveWell · November 2016 Own record

   “Evidence Action—Future Programs (No Lean Season) | Evidence Action | $250,000 and $170,792 | March 2014 and March 2015”

GiveWell's grant page records a $250,000 Good Ventures grant to Evidence Action in March 2014 [E1], and its experimental-work table lists the same grant [E3]. The same table lists a $34,382 Good Ventures grant to IDinsight dated September 2014 [E2], within the criteria's range. Both records come from GiveWell rather than an independent source, but they are specific dated grant records rather than general restatements. The IDinsight grant's listed title differs somewhat from the claim's description of its purpose, which does not affect the amount or year.
