Because your premise is false, and there is no equivalence between time
and money.

I have no premise of an "equivalence" between time and money; the
question of why people distinguish between them is nevertheless a
legitimate one, since they are both scarce resources which people have
to prioritize and allocate between their own personal needs and those of
others.

Also note that you are asking a community of people who donate
their time whether they prefer to donate their time or money...
you might get a different result if you asked some other group.

People distinguish between them exactly because there's no equivalence
between them. If you can't understand how helping some aged neighbor
carry groceries into the house might be undertaken with a certain blithe
alacrity by the same person who'd think twice about forking over dough
to the old dame when she hits him up unexpectedly for a ten spot, then I
don't think anyone here will be able to enlighten you.

I'm already buying money with my time, so giving it is giving what I
need to pay my rent and my fill my fridge and it's also giving my time.

Deciding about how to allocate my free time is quite easier and just
costs me…  time.
