So do you think the call centers should do it for free? They have to make a parnasa too and this is how they do it. It is not a tayna on them, nor is iyt a tayna on the tzedaka since that is part of their budget, by paying a percentage to callers they make more money so your money is going to a good cause either way. The tzedaka has bills to pay, whether it is to pay a Rebbe, pay a janitor, pay con-ed or pay a call center. The tzedaka has these bills to pay and your mitzvah is to give to them to help with those bills.
