For me the 🔸10% pledge is all about social justice and equality. I am in the position of real luxury and ease, mainly by luck of birth. Others around the globe suffer a great deal—equally as a function of their luck (or lack thereof). My 10% pledge is about doing something to balance that unfair inequality.
