World
equates
Philanthropists with a person who donates money.
We are
different.
We think
most of the individuals on earth are born as philanthropists.
Donating
Rs 1000/- or USD 20 or its equivalent in country currency every year to
charities is not difficult financially. But mentally it is far far difficult.
People
give parties on their birthday or if they cant do so then celebrate their
birthday at home and this means they easily spend Rs 1000/- on their birthday.
But donating it to charities is a NO. And if we say donate to charities
you think are credible, then they say "you dont teach me"
We are
different.
If people cant donate for whatever reason (economical or mental attitude),
then they can donate blood once a year (Following medical conditions)
Again,
we are different.
We think scientists or inventors donate their talent to the world which
is far bigger than a few thousand dollars. Person who has invented light
has donated far more than billions of billions of dollars worth money.
Same with mobile.
So we count inventors as philanthropists. (We know inventor unfortunately
may or maybe different than a person who got patent of the same.
World
thinks you should be an inventor of a product or idea, if you have a patent
for invention.
We follow
law and therefore make individual pages of only those philanthropists
who have donated substantial amount in their currency. We take a step
further and not legally but ethically & morally call a scientist or
an inventor a philanthropist.
But we
are different.
If someone just donates Rs 1000/- or USD 20/- or its equivalent once a
year, and donates it to Developed Nation Network Trust indicating which
NGO in India the donation should go to or which issue it should go to,
we can share that person's name on their birthday in our online calendar
which anybody in the world can see. Its small donation, so we cant make
a separate page for that donor. But as responsible organisation, mention
the donor's name in our digital calendar.
But we
are different.
While we cant put the name of the person who doesnt donate to DNNT in
our digital calendar, we want attitude of the person to be changed. We
know it is difficult.
But can
think it is important to start.
