I sometimes wonder what kind of impact it would have on American politics if high-visibility euergitism was still something we expected and our elite performed - instead of nothing, political activism or (low visibility) 'effective altruism.'

I invite you to imagine the public image consequences of a situation where, say, Jeff Bezos funds the poorest 200 urban high schools in America back up to a tolerable level in exchange for having them named after him. You may well oppose that idea - and for good reasons!

But it would have some pretty big long term consequences, I am guessing, to the public sense of Bezos in particular but also the wealthy in general if you ended up with a situation where half the country lived in a town with at least one "Jeff Bezos High School.'
