I did not intend any moral judgement in that statement, but after
re-reading it, I would say that "not for money" would have been
better phrased as "not only for money".

Let me clarify.

There _could_ be a mentor who hates Git the software and Git the
community, who wants to mentor students only for the mentorship
stipend.  I do not want to see such mentors.  I would imagine that
such a person surely can find something else that is more enjoyable
and do the mentoring there for money, if competent enough to mentor
others.  And that would be good for everybody.
