In a world that often feels overwhelming and sometimes absurd, the 10% pledge gives me something concrete and meaningful to hold onto. It's become core to who I am—a constant reminder that we can each make a real, measurable difference.✨
When I finally took the pledge in 2021, it felt like aligning my actions with my values. Since then, I've donated $30K+ to effective charities, but the impact on my own life has been just as significant...
For years, I wrestled with: If I wasn't causing this suffering, why was I obligated to help? But that logic felt hollow when faced with the reality that I could save lives with money I'd barely miss. Sometimes the simplest truths take longest to act on.💭
As Giving What We Can celebrates 15 incredible years, I'm reflecting on my own path to the 🔸10% Pledge. It started with a lunch conversation with a friend years ago about the drowning child thought experiment. The idea stuck with me, but like many big decisions, it took time to ripen. 🧵👇
