Activist and fundraiser Dan Pallotta calls out the double standard that drives our broken relationship to charities.

Instead of equating frugality with morality, he asks us to start rewarding charities for their big goals and big accomplishments (even if that comes with big expenses). In this bold talk, he says: Let's change the way we think about changing the world.
