If someone got upon that idea... I'd say it was noble, but I don't believe in that anymore. I don't believe in any one that happening anymore. And even if people start with something noble, I don't believe in it staying so over time. Even less when the founders are gone, dead. Reason is the following: 1) corruption; 2) naivete - people believe so much in doing something good, in collecting money and donating it, it's going to change something, in opening up single facilities making the world a better place at this location, and in the end they got no idea about what the world really works like. About structures, concrete structures. They don't get sure where their money truly ends up - charity is a huge money-laundering machine as well as a money-generating machine, just think about for how long you know the donations for food and schools for children in Africa -, they either work together with official institutions and associations of states - which are going to abuse them for other purposes also, like coups -, or they grow too big as associations and are too full themselves, their personnel goes out of control and does things they shouldn't; and 3) if you really wanna change anything in the world, it might be it won't work without battle-readiness, because this century is no more the time of kings getting fearful if they simply see their servants protesting on the street - the current kings reigning the world learned "if you let them satisfy their need to protest, they also gonna go home again", simple protest rallies don't frighten them anymore to change something in their concept.
And all these factors, I don't see mankind so soon taking them into their calculation or being mentally ready and willing to accept that state of reality. They still try to change the world with the means that impressed somebody in the last century.
