Providitis 

An epidemic that leads organizations to use the most boring verb in the English language – provide.
That nonprofit's website has a serious case of Providitis - all of their goals are to "provide XYZ."

Nonprofits always have the same narrative:"We exist. Give us money so we can PROVIDE things"

You have been waiting impatiently for the event and now that Prom night is not far away, you've been experiencing strong, impatient feelings about how long it is taking for Prom to get here. Some people encounter side effects like irritability, craziness, and an intense eagerness.
Oh my goodness, I can't wait for Prom!! I NEED to get my nail's done soon. I think I have promitis.
