Notable contributions to the LISK network should be rewarded by the LISK team imho. Otherwise only delegates would be interested in doing anything for LISK and we have to think about much bigger audience here.

No, Lisk is a decentralized blockchain. The decentralized community should reward contributing delegates by voting for them. That's the idea behind DPoS. A centralized entity should not be needed to reward these delegates.
I decided to not give 25% to my voters, but to donate those 25% to contributing people and great projects. Every voter who says this is greedy is just greedy himselve. He prefers his own personal profit over the benefit for the whole Lisk ecosystem.
If all those percentages shared to voters would be invested into great Lisk projects and into people organizing meetups, creating tools, fixing bugs instead, we could be already at twice or three times the price we are now. And everybody who owns LSK would profit much more from higher prices than from a few single LSK payed out because of voting. Think in long term, not short term to get big rewards!
So, .cryptic. tell me who is greedy here:
1) the delegates spending 25% to people contributing to Lisk and promising projects,
2) voters who try to get higher rewards by doing absolutely NOTHING for Lisk
?

Ok.But if you dont give nothing why somone have to vote you?If everybody thinks like that whats the purpose of all this?This is just a question not a provocation.

People should realize that they can earn much more when the Lisk price increases instead of getting some additional LSK without having a higher price. I give you an example, what do you prefer?:
1) now: 1000 LSK with $5 each ($5000), later: 1000 LSK with $20 each ($20000)
2) now: 1000 LSK with $5 each ($5000), later: 1100 LSK with $5 each ($5500)

I think we agree that example 1) is the "better" one. To get a higher price, Lisk must become better, Lisk must be used by much more people, Lisk must become more popular. To reach this, people should organize meetups, build tools, build apps, and so on... To motivate people/delegates to do all those things, you should vote for them, so they can keep forging, and using their funds to do those things, or to fund such projects.

Meaning: by voting for delegates who contribute much to the Lisk ecosystem, you help increasing the price of Lisk which brings you much bigger earnings (X-folds) than just collecting a few additional single LSKs.
This means: by voting for such delegates who contribute to the Lisk ecosystem, you invest longterm into Lisk and you will get much higher rewards than voting for delegates who contribute nothing than paying out some LSK.
