The immutable laws of philanthropy

Carve these laws of philanthropy in stone

Feel free to carve these immutable laws of philanthropy in stone and put them at the front door of your nonprofit’s head office. They are: 1. While there are people on the earth, you are more often wrong than not if you think that no one else is interested to see the specific charitable thing you want to do, get done. 2. Financial donors don’t give to charitable organisations. They give to the beneficiaries of the charitable organisation’s Good Cause Enterprise. 3. For donors, it matters that as much of the profit from their donations benefit the beneficiary of the nonprofit as is humanly possible.
