Charity for Nothing: The Virtues Book III

Charity is home free: her degree under her belt and making a beeline, straight for sunny Ft. Royal, and her sisters, Hope and Faith. Excited to see them, yet having been warned by Hope to watch herself when it came to the disarmingly charming ways of The Kraken, Charity never expected to walk right into the one man to flip all of her switches to the 'on' position before she'd even taken a dozen steps into town. Nothing was everything she liked. Tall, handsome, with a pair of eyes that any woman should swoon over. Just the right mix of tortured bad boy to pique all of her healer's instincts. Charity knew that the men of The Kraken played for keeps; all except, it seemed, for this one. Too bad no one told The Kraken that she played for keeps, too.

Charity Sue: She lisped, "Hi, I'se Charity Sue and I'se kin ta' thet woman on the floor. I jest cum frum Widder's Holler and I is gonna need sum hep." Then she smiled, a smile that warmed the entire room. From the rugged hollers of the Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia to the rugged mountains of the Rockies in Colorado came this "raggedy" preteen girl carrying a burden far beyond her years and a secret worth more than the value of the entire town of Paradise Valley. She had made the trek, all alone, to find kin in the small town that held the Paradise Valley Thrift Store along with someone she knew was a relative, far removed, literally. The reason? An amazingly horrific flood in West Virginia in the year previous had taken away her parents, her uncle, the house in which she lived with them and... Well, you will have to read the book to find out everything that went missing and where it went. Suffice to say here that the journey turned out to be much more dangerous and complicated than any of her new friends had imagined. Will her West Virginian strong prevail? Will they find her parents, uncle and... I do hope you will read this with joy in your heart, have some laughs, maybe shed a tear but, most of all, enjoy the adventure.

Charity and Gender in Late XIXth and Early XXth Centuries France

In the 19th century France, philanthropy was primarily thought to be a personal virtue. At first, women were not intended to be part of the philanthropic world but, then, men from privileged classes realized that their wives and daughters, symbols of family happiness and ladylike sweetness, were the most suited to smooth off class relationships with the poor ones. They granted them with "special qualities". But the role assigned to women at the Office Central des Oeuvres de Bienfaisance excluded them from the decision-making bodies. They were relegated to the Ladies Auxiliary Committee. As part of the elite, they were only able to act according to how good wives and social events organisers were expected to be. They were embedded in blatant paternalism. Philanthropy did not play an emancipating role for them. On the contrary, it contributed to stress their inferiority. Charitable women eventually came emancipated of their own accord even though no one thought they had any worthwhile qualities.
Charity and Giving in Monotheistic Religions
This book deals with various manifestations of charity or giving in the contexts of the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim societies in Late Antiquity and Early Middle Ages. Monotheistic charity and giving display many common features. These underlying similarities reflect a commonly shared view about God and his relations to mankind and what humans owe to God and expect from him. Nevertheless, the fact that the emphasis is placed on similarities does not mean that the uniqueness of the concepts of charity and giving in the three monotheistic religions is denied. The contributors of the book deal with such heterogeneous topics like the language of social justice in early Christian homilies as well as charity and pious endowments in medieval Syria, Egypt and al-Andalus during the 11th-15th centuries. This wide range of approaches distinguish the book from other works on charity and giving in monotheistic religions.
Charity Law & Social Policy

Charity Law & Social Policy

Charity Law & Social Policy explores contemporary law, policy and practice in a range of modern common law nations in four parts and from the perspective of how this has evolved in the UK. As progenitor of a system bequeathed to its colonies and after centuries of leadership in developing the core principles, policies and precedents that subsequently shaped its development, the contribution of England & Wales, the originating jurisdiction, is first described and analysed in detail in Parts 1 and 2. These broadly sketch the parameters and role of ‘charity’ – seen as a mix of public and private interests - then address the law’s role in protecting, policing, adjusting and supporting charity. This provides the critical dimensions for the comparative analysis of experience in the common law nations that constitutes the main part of the book. Part 3, in 5 chapters, provides an analysis of the legal functions as they apply to type of need and thereby give effect to social policy in Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States of America. Part 4 concludes with three chapters that appraise political influence as a factor in aligning charity law with social policy to create a facilitative environment for appropriate charitable activity. Attention is given to the central role of the regulator, contemporary charity law frameworks and definitional boundaries.
