Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There is a place and a time for philanthropy, and there is only so much money you can give away.
Today, we don't blink an eye when the world's wealthiest individuals donate enormous sums of money to charitable causes. In fact, we expect them to do so.
Everyone has something to contribute to this world. It's just a matter of being given that opportunity to do so.
Some charities treat donors like cash machines. Until now there hasn't been any effective way for them to provide a more personal or interactive giving experience.
If the money we donate helps one child or can ease the pain of one parent, those funds are well spent.
Being willing to donate the taxpayers' money is not the same as being willing to put your own money where your mouth is.
Donors need to know what their money is being used for.
When a person earns money, it makes sense if he spends it himself. It's a shame when a person earns money, and some strange funds spend it.
As I see it, most major philanthropists have been bullied into giving. They feel social pressure to give. It has become a cost of doing business.
I don't know if people understand that there are different ways to raise money for great causes.
