So, the project "global charity" doesn't have a single point of failure even if all individuals choose exactly one charity each.
But I'm not sure that I'm permitted to take the global point of view -- after all, I only control my own actions. From my personal vantage point, I care about charity and I care about preserving my own solvency.
