I could make an argument that Director of Development positions at community charities would fit a Robin Hood role. They aren't fundraisers, they are tasked with schmoozing and convincing rich folk to hand over large sums "to leave a legacy". And then the charity turns around and helps whatever group of less fortunate they feel mission-driven to help.
Begging doesn't really work for the big dollars. You have to use psychology, and that can be twisted to appear as manipulating/robbing the rich.
