Why I Donated to Doctors Without Borders

Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières, MSF) is a highly reputable charity dedicated to providing impartial and effective medical assistance in some of the world’s most challenging environments. By donating to MSF, you ensure that your funds are efficiently utilized to deliver essential healthcare services to populations affected by conflicts, natural disasters, epidemics, and other emergencies. The organization is renowned for its transparency and accountability, consistently ranking highly in charity evaluations for its financial stewardship and direct impact on the ground.

If you like my stuff, please consider supporting by subscribing.

MSF operates globally, deploying medical professionals and support staff to regions where healthcare infrastructure is lacking or overwhelmed. Their work includes setting up field hospitals, conducting surgical missions, managing disease outbreaks, and offering mental health support. Additionally, MSF advocates for vulnerable populations, bringing attention to crises that might otherwise be overlooked. By addressing urgent medical needs and promoting access to healthcare, Doctors Without Borders plays a crucial role in saving lives and improving health outcomes in some of the most precarious situations worldwide.

Confronting Hypocrisy in Publicizing Charitable Donations

I hold deep respect for and actively engage with the main holy books of Christianity (The Bible), Islam (The Quran), Buddhism (The Tripitaka, and others), Zoroastrianism (The Avesta), and Judaism (The Talmud), drawing wisdom and guidance from their teachings.

In this case I want to talk about Judaism. While the Talmud advises against boasting about one's charitable deeds, I believe it is important to openly demonstrate my commitment to charity, especially within the field of stock investing, which is often perceived as lacking in philanthropic efforts.

By showcasing my charitable actions, I aim to challenge these stereotypes and inspire others in the financial sector to embrace and prioritize generosity, fostering a more compassionate and supportive community.

I realize and admit that my action is ultimately rooted in selfishness and I will benefit from the positive PR, less taxes paid, and an ego boost that comes from it.

But it’s a chicken and an egg problem. I hope I will be able to donate twice as much next year.

I also wanted to say that this donation was made in honor of my mom, who passed away from cancer when I was a teenager. Although I don’t believe in supernatural powers, it gives me some sort relief to be able to do things like this.
