 Peter Singer on Charity

Last summer, Prof. Rude and his family spent $2,000 to go on a vacation in Chile. Instead of
booking the trip, he could have donated that money to a charity that likely would have saved
a child’s life. According to Peter Singer, Prof. Rude did something morally wrong: he should
have donated the money instead of going on vacation.
