I've used GiveWell for donations and don't consider myself an Effective Altruist. Does GiveWell get to count for the just the EA community?

By analogy, if a Catholic Church created a charity for curing malaria, and I donated money to it, that wouldn't make me Catholic. But still the existence of the charity, especially if people donated over a billion dollars to it, would be a credible argument against people saying "Catholics do nothing about curing malaria". Does that make sense?
