Andreessen And Horowitz Are Donating Half Their VC Income To Charity
- daenz 14y agoThough I'm not religious, there's a specific set of bible verses I think of when I see news of someone being publicly charitable: 1 Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 3 But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly. --Matthew 6:1-4 I think it means that the spirit of charity is purest when it is anonymous.
