It engages not just your dollars, but also your mind, time, skills and networks - the philanthropic equivalent of leaning in, rather than leaning back. Most importantly, proactive giving is something you want to do.

It doesn't matter if defenders want to battle with me or not; I will just be trying to do my job as well as I possibly can.
