SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn: Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Perhaps the ultimate aim of charitable work is to see the poor empowered and flourishing. While these goals are certainly noble and worthwhile\, they are impossible without Freedom– the 6th Mark of Effective Charity. The poor are often trapped in a cycle of bondage\, whether that be financial\, psychological\, or otherwise. Their freedom to choose has often been restricted. Though we aim to help\, sometimes our charity inadvertently keeps the poor enslaved. How can we make certain that our charity acts as a springboard to a better future\, rather than a contribution to a restrictive bondage? \nJoin True Charity Initiative on Tuesday\, March 26th from 12-1:30 pm as James Whitford and Savannah Aleckson present over the 6th Mark of Effective Charity- Freedom. We’ll meet in the Upstairs Willard Learning Center for a time of food\, fellowship\, and learning. Suggested donation for lunch is $5. Seating is limited\, so RSVP today to reserve your spot!

SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn: Exchange
DESCRIPTION:What do you see when you look at the poor? Do you see someone helpless\, in need of your pity and help? Or do you see someone with innate capacity and worth\, with something to give? \nAn important aspect of charity work is seeing the client as an active participant in his or her own recovery and development rather than simply a “charity case.” One way we can put this valuable concept into practice is through the process of Exchange– the 5th Mark of Effective Charity. Learn how we can help dignify charitable work and remind the poor of their innate ability\, all while responding to immediate and pressing needs without participating in harmful one-way handouts. \nJoin us Thursday\, February 28th from 12-1:15 pm in the upstairs Willard Learning Center at Watered Gardens as we fellowship together and continue on our journey through the 7 Marks of Effective Charity. There is a $5 suggested donation for lunch. Seating is limited\, so make sure to RSVP today!

SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn: Affiliation
DESCRIPTION:Join me for a discussion on this first and vital mark of effective charity\, Affiliation. \n  \n“Just as it is gravely wrong to take from individuals what they can accomplish by their own initiative and industry and give it to the community\, so also it is an injustice and at the same time a grave evil and disturbance of right order to assign to a greater and higher association what lesser and subordinate organizations can do.” Pope Pius XI\, Quadragesimo anno\, 1931 \n
