They donate to actual research or to corrupt organizations like Susan g Komen that uses 85% of the funds for overhead and only a tiny 15% for research?
It’s not useful to donate for the board of millionaires to have lavish parties in exotic islands with the excuse of having “business meetings”
I often have the same question for those “I am running a marathon dressed as an apple to raise money for cancer” things.
Person 1: “Can you give £10 to a cancer charity?”
Person 2: “No, sorry”
Person 1: “Could you give £10 if someone ran a marathon?”
Person 2: “I don’t really need anyone to run a marathon… unless… I dunno… could you make it more humiliating and difficult for them?”
Person 1: “I could make them dress in a giant apple costume?”
Person 2: “Hahaha! That would get really hot, and their legs wouldn’t be able to move properly and they’d look stupid and everyone would laugh at how stupid they look! That sounds like an adequate amount of suffering! I will happily pay £10 to a cancer charity as long as this Person has suffered”
Resources are limited. People choose to give that limited resource to a select number of places. If you can show someone you are willing to put in effort for something, people are now working to donate.
Ah yes, Ulta. The up and coming small-timer that can only afford a few thousand dollars to donate. They gotta pinch every penny to keep their doors open! Think of the shareholders!
I wonder if they did it anyways. A year prior they donated 2.2M
That must have been a lot of questions!
Yeah, 2,200 questions
