The entire nonprofit system is a symptom of a broken and unjust society
When the government does not properly fund crucial programs and services, it falls to those who can afford it to donate their wages or time to fill in the gaps.

My time in nonprofits showed me this. There should not HAVE to be private orgs making sure we get our basic needs met
the govt should be doing this already.
If we had well-funded social programs, we wouldn't need the vast majority of these orgs in the 1st place.1 reply 1 retweet 19 likesShow this thread -
The current system is flawed because we shouldn't have to rely on the whims of billionaires to get our basic needs met. Do I think we can trust them to act in our best interests, and not use nonprofits to launder money? cc:

THAT BEING SAID, so many nonprofits are doing vital work in our communities. Until we can make our govt do its job, please support and donate to orgs that are doing the work of our government. Drop a reply of a nonprofit that you believe is fighting the good fight.

Donations to our & other progressive campaigns are of course welcome. But there are dozens of crises that simply can't wait a year for favorable election results.
