Why would I give money to an organization where the majority can vote against me, instead of just donating it to something specific I personally support?

You can donate it to an organization which claims to support your goals and then decides how to spend it without any vote whatsoever. I don't see how that is better. Or you can just donate to very very niche things and dilute your voice.

I think there's room in between for a organization that listens to members.

The same is true for you, you or the board might do what you claim or not, voting doesn't change anything in this regard.

If I want to dilute my voice, then I join an organization like yours where there is a majority vote; if I don't want to do that, I just support
those groups that are very close to my goals and have a good reputation. And they don't have to be niche at all.

I'm not entirely against majority voting in a voluntary association, but in this case I don't see any benefit to it. Maybe if you come up with
specific plans and goals, I might.
