"Techies" believe they know better how to allocate their money than do charity workers. Why give now when they could wisely invest and give 3x as much at a later time?
Then maybe at that later time their internal generosity dries after years of toiling and smaller than expected payback.

How do we balance this? What if an organization employs non-technical people that pay 3x as much as necessary for tech services because they don't understand what's necessary.
- tpdubs2 13y agoAt first, I was concerned that folks would rather wait to give until they'd "made it beg" or were old. Survey results showed "waiting" as the least impt reason for people not giving to charity. Really reinforced the idea that people just need to have a more straightforward way to connect right now with causes they will love.
