I dont understand what its really being accomplished by parading all these people out on a stage.


Except:

"Hey, donate to this and we'll drag you out on a rock n roll stage in front of thousands of people to pat you on the butt"

"Umm, okay sure"

World PEACE ENGAGED!

The people on that stage can donate 5% of their net worth, and no one starves.

Also, this just comes across as fucking bullshit. Donate and give your time, then go the fuck away. Going up on stage to talk about how awesome you are for the time and money you gave just smells foul. Fuck you.
