Because they are satisfied with the recipients past performance,
agree with the recipients stated goals, and trust that the
donation will be used in pursuit of said goals. They understand
that those directly involved have a better understanding of the
needs of the organization and have no desire to micro-manage.
There are two options. Donate and trust that they will do the
right thing, or don't donate.
