Infrastructure is expensive. It also enables acting on large scales immediately. I have no problem with the idea that money donated to the Red Cross may not go "directly" to the victims of the latest tragedy. Without the money for administrative and infrastructure costs, they would be unable to do what they do.<p>I think your startup is both good and noble. But I suspect that being a "beast of a company" and having large infrastructure costs is the price we have to pay for an organization to be able to respond immediately to humanitarian crisis on a global scale.
