Many of these businesses may make better sense as "non-profits", out to improve the welfare of the general community and funded purely by donations. I'm not sure whether donors would appreciate writing fat checks for programmers/managers/etc., but it's clear that a "hockey stick" growth could lead to a immediate path to monetization (if people know your name, you can capitalize on it when you're doing fundraising drives). |

Almost all VCs aren't interested in "non-profit" and "welfare of general community."
They want hockey-stick ROI and unicorns.
I know this may be the wrong forum to say this, but let's get real...VC are in it for the money, not to make a social impact, and the last thing most of them are interested in is playing welfare daddy to a bunch of tech nerds.
