Forums/Art&Fun: Is pop-stars’ donating sums for charity a heartfelt gest to help distressed people, or just a publicity stunt?

Here in Montreal Kindergardens and Playspaces for children are financed by the state mainly. (couples pay 7$/child per day). It turns out the tax take for the state from the freed women more than compensates the expense.
It makes no diffrenece what the motives are for those who set up child spaces in Russia. With six million children living below poverty line the real supporter must be the state as it was during soviet
times and as it exists to day in Norway Sweden etc. If Putin is serious about a declining population he must attend to this.

A combination of both, maybe - After all, as somebody said, no great deeds are done in isolation. Why only pop stars, all kinds of celebrities with money like to indulge in philanthropy, just to assuage their inner Devils maybe and placate their Guilt, to some extent.! However cause I'm neither that Rich nor a celebrity, I may be wrong on both accounts!
