I respectfully disagree. You get the benefit of internal satisfaction from donating to causes that you deem worthy. You also get the benefit of being able to tell people about all the good you’re doing.I support all sorts of things that don't benefit me personally.
I'm a life member of a fish and wildlife association in Montana that has a focus on a geographic area of Montana I never hunt. Like what they do though in their part of the state.
I get no benefit from donating to access programs in states I've never hunted.
I donate to Audubon and don't expect to get to shoot songbirds because I do.
I get no benefit donating to funds that provide money to gf agencies to pay to process game to give to the needy.
I get nothing for donating money to make sure families in need get Thanksgiving dinner.
I get nothing from donating an Arizona bull elk tag to a young lady with cancer.
I get nothing from donating at Christmas so kids I don't even know have something under the tree.
I got nothing for giving a family without much money my camp trailer so they could enjoy camping on public land.
I got nothing for writing a check to help a coworker out when his home burned down a year ago.
Some just do things without needing a payoff or something in it for themselves.
I purchase dog food and make donations to the local animal shelter, nothing in it for me. My dog is well taken care of.
I donate to APR and rarely hunt that property, and may never again.
I donate to the nature conservancy and don't often hunt their property either. Some of it is off limits to hunting in fact.
Should I go on or is the point clear?
