Thank you for sharing your experiences as related to giving back to organizations you care about and your motivations toward those ends. You raise a lot of valid points -- is there more, as individuals that any/every one could be doing? How is this linked to being the change we want to see in the world? What is the role of monetary versus other types of contributions? How are we helping to solve another's problems -- and are they actually 'other' at all, save it for fate or some other twists and turns?
If I understand correctly, your motivation for writing about this type of giving is your way of paying it forward. I think that's interesting and, actually, pretty great. Three years is a decent chunk of time to keep at something discreetly -- time to make known your contributions are intentional, and 'here's why'. I can appreciate and respect that.
