Philanthropy Gone Wrong

Dear Philanthropist,
 
We were very excited when we heard you were initiating community development projects in our community. Though we heard the technology behind your initiatives was linked to an Advertising campaign, we were still hopeful for the promises you made during your first visit. It's been a year since you and your team initiated the projects, but you have left us more pain and anguish than joy... Thanks to you, our skeptic attitude towards philanthropy has deteriorated!
 
With regrets,
 
The Community Representative

  • Proposed technology behind philanthropic initiatives should be investigated thoroughly
  • Advertising campaigns should never be directly attached to philanthropic initiatives
  • Let your reputation speak for itself!
