    Non profit world is extremely diverse, there's economical programs, people advocating rights, education programs, safeguarding of cultural inheritance...

    I'd say all quadra's will have some interest in some parts of the non-profit "world" so to speak.

    Depends on the organization imo. Plenty of non-profit political think tanks are Gamma, IKEA is technically a non-profit and is gamma/delta. PETA is aristocratic Beta/Delta. Something like UNICEF is more Alpha/Delta.

    All types. ..
    -
    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    The question can probably be best answered by exploring different quadras motives behind engaging in such work (another good way would be to look at what motivates different clubs (e.g. ST, SF, NT, NF)...you will find many NF musicians of the opposing quadras getting involved in such causes.

    I know that people from various types get involved in such work (of course), but perhaps the way they do so and why they do it is partly motivated by their type (I think for example of LSIs and ESIs who assist their church...maybe they do it because of divine command, a feeling of obligation to their church, or maybe because of some social prestige or social longing.

    A wealthy LIE or a ILI moneymaker may think such endeavours are not the best usages of their time, and may decide to give billions of money away to noble causes before or after they die.

    I could imagine an LIE being all like "let's get inspired and change the world through capitalism, yo!"

    It seems to generally be a Beta/Delta theme. Aristocratic types are typically more conscientious in terms of wanting to see values and structures realized in the real world, rather than being content to think of them abstractly.
