Let's pull our heads out of the rabbit hole and understand that the monetary system is the most inefficient way to get anything done. "Charity" is a word used to elicit guilt so that the general populous will cover the gaps created by misappropriated funds collected by governments. If you desire to live in a community then take care of the members of that community, as they would take care of you. No money need change hands.
