Model: non-profit vs for-impact

December 28th, 2020

Non-profit is a bad term

non-profit is a tax delineation

 

nobody wants to be defined by what they aren't

 

it makes money a dirty thing

you need money to sustain

money is fuel

 

Charity is a terrible word as well

as if we're doing things for free

 

I think they should call themselves for-impact organisations

 

You better be profitable,

but you define profit differently

 

If your objective is to rescue kittens from trees

Then you better be rescuing more kittens from trees this month

than you were last month, that is profit

 

the money is the fuel

the profit is defined by whatever your cause is
