Suppоse yоu hаve $100 thаt yоu wаnt to donate to charity. Are you morally required to donate it to the charity that you think would do the most good with the money? First, consider the case in which you are morally required to donate the money. What does MacAskill’s “Maximizing Beneficence” principle say about this case, and how does he justify that principle? Second, consider the case in which you are not morally requiring to donate the money, but choose to donate anyway. How could someone use the kind of cases discussed by Horton (such as rescuing the children from the burning building) to argue that even if donating is morally optional, if one donates money, then one ought to donate to the charity that does the most good?
