Hello, neighbors,
I want to call your attention to a provocative talk next Sunday at the
Baltimore Ethical Society. The speaker is Robert Egger, author of the
book "Begging for Change : The Dollars and Sense of Making Nonprofits
Responsive, Efficient, and Rewarding for All".
Title: "Food Donations Impede the Elimination of Hunger and Poverty"
Speaker: Robert Egger, Founder & President of the DC Central Kitchen
Time: Sunday, Feb. 17, 10:30 AM
We must rethink our devotion to food donation. Food programs have
sidetracked efforts to eradicate hunger and poverty; co-dependency
within the system is multifaceted and troubling. Food donors and
recipients are trapped in an ever-expanding web of immediate
gratification that offers the recipients no long-term hope of ever
achieving independence and self-reliance.

Hope to see you there,
