Default Re: Immoral philantrophy?

ah,

This is not directly related to your question, but a big part of the reason I give charity and volunteer is to make myself feel good. This element of self-interest influences where I decide to devote my resources. Nothing immoral aobut that.

Exactly, and I think it does address his question. This was the struggle I had with people in the social work sector. Many try their hardest to act like this isn't the case, as if it subtracted from the cause. This element of self-interest is what creates a lot of success when it comes to non-profits and volunteering.
