A friend sends this around (amounts deleted):
"Got an email today from the CEO with exciting news: We've just received a $xxx million donation! That brings us up to $x00 million in donations! We continue to serve a record number of patients! Staff reductions to begin in April!"
To what extent have modern economic theories invaded the non-profit sector? How does your thinking about religious community support depend on modern business models?
Dorothy Day used a different economic model... she did as much as she could with all her resources, and more resources appeared.
This might be the abundance model... contrasted with the scarcity model of modern capitalist enterprises... or it might be something else.
A set of questions I'll be thinking about!

SMILES MATTER!
Life is a chain reaction.
We each have our part in it.
The butterfly is not in the Amazon,
It is at the corner of your mouth-- SMILE

- Hi! I'm Charlie, a Unitarian Universalist minister in my 50s. Come follow along on the adventure. For 30 years I was a designer of Consumer Electronics Products for a trusted name in electronics. Now I'm not only looking at life from a different angle, but getting to do things which might help show the world's blessings. I hope you comment on my posts, if you like them or don't like them or think they could be better. I'm here to learn.
