You are right, the page does contain the phrase “Give 10% of your income each year”.(Somehow google has not picked it up so I did not find it). I think GWWC has made a mistake here. The text of the actual pledge does not have this constraint.
Maybe @graceadams or someone else from GWWC can clarify things and fix the formulation on their website?
We’ll update this! We do encourage people to give annually to keep in the habit but you’re also right that it’s not actually in the pledge text. I think this is a major point for a lot of people so we’ll update the page! Thanks for pointing that out!
This seems against the wording of “Give 10% of your income each year”
Why are you under the impression that you have to give each year? I tried to google your quoted string but could not find an exact match.
As I interpret the GWWC pledge formulation, there is no condition when you have to donate, just how much.
