Any reciprocation is better than free if you intend to make a business out of your writing. I wouldn't want to imply, however, that it's a bad idea to donate your time for a cause.

Write for peanuts if you must but at least get something so that it's a professional transaction. The exception is guest blogging to build SEO and credibility for your own blog - but that should be a two-way street IMHO. You can’t expect to be taken seriously as a writer if you write for free.
