I have a friend. He doesn't donate to any charity because he says most of it goes to the CEO and employees of the Charity. He says, it is better to give some money to a random stranger.
I asked him when was the last time he did this. He couldn't remember.
He also doesn't give a dime to the pan handlers as he thinks they will waste that money in booze and grass. He says it is better to go to a adult care center and help the people in need.
I asked him when was the last time he went to an adult care center; he has never.

I have yet to see a day when he has helped anybody; but when anybody is about to help others, he sure is there saying how that's really not going to help.

Is giving a dime to the pan handler going to make him rich? No, it's not. Let's assume a majority of them also waste it on booze and getting high. But there still is a portion, no matter how small, who could use that dime. It sure is better than not giving it to him Or stopping people from doing it.

I have no problem with people who justify a way out of not doing something, it is your prerogative not to do it. But to make yourself feel better, don't come on trashing a legit cause. What's changing your name can do for Nepal? It won't be something concrete I can show to you. But subconsciously it will have some communal effect; may be, just maybe, a kid will understand that caste system is not really that important. Is it going to happen? More than likely not, but sure has a better chance of happening than you not doing anything and just mocking the process.

I said no to Kony. I am supporting this.
