Hi
SumantaKS, basically the
act of
investing (of their time and efforts in animal protection programs)
appears normal.
Here,
investing appears as a
noun, the subject of the sentence.
On the other hand, if the sentence is like this:
In the firm, the investing partners are supposed to invest equally in the project.Here, the subject is
partners; in this case,
investing is just an adjective (participle) modifying the noun
partners.
