I’ve been thinking about “earning to give,” my rationale was that you shouldn’t leave the corporate job to join a nonprofit, if you left, it’d add competition for the nonprofit job, which is already competitive, and leave an empty slot that might be filled by a not so charitable “next person”. Also, by staying in the for profit job, you can influence your corp and peers, driving more donations and engagement. But if you can launch a new nonprofit, then by all means, do that.<p>Something not mentioned in the article, if you are wondering why they use smartphone technology to track the mosquito nets, it’s to try to stop people from selling the very same net that can save their lives.
