People engagement

More pernicious are disengaged employees, who represent over a quarter of the
workforce across the US. They exhibit negative behaviors and undermine the
accomplishments of their coworkers. The effect can be seen in decreased output
and a rise in accidents, absenteeism and staff turnover. With disengagement
having such a detrimental effect on the workplace, some employers may consider
it better just to let disaffected workers go, but these employees can carry their
discontent outside, damaging the organization’s reputation with customers and
potential future hires.

More importantly, almost none of these people, volunteers or backers, have any influence. When backers who only have one mode of participation cannot even impact where and how their dollars get spent, they will stop being as actively engaged as a strong community requires. The same occurs with volunteers where only the dedicated few (who usually do feel they are making an impact and have influence) actually stick around, while the majority burnout.
