so question at hand is how much of an altruistic person are you? give away your lunchmoney, your weekly income, or sell your house and declare bankruptcy on account of saving others.
I for one would assume there are a lot of lives to be saved, therefore i'd assess my income and how much money i can save (maybe drink a beer or two less when i go out or smth similar) and try to raise as much money as i can come up with, without significantly damaging my lifestyle.
one person can't save the world, but he can make a difference

Well do you do this? Because this is a theoretical question doesn't mean that there aren't people out there dying and that your money won't make someone elses life better.
