I think it is obviously not morally necessary. There are no right to be compensated for any labor you choose. If I choose to do the labor of writing in this forum I do not see how there could be some moral reason to compensate me. So I think the question probably is not the correct question to pose. But I assume it depends on what donate means. Can I pick up garbage on my way to work without donating the labor?
