According to NAACP Bill Barber--‘How we use
our money is a moral issue.’ Ah, yes. About that …
So it was said yesterday, to impugn the “morality” of someone who uses his money in this way: To mitigate the effects of the federal
government shutdown that spanned the first half of October, the John William
Pope Foundation has announced $185,000 in grants to
humanitarian charities in central, eastern, and western North Carolina.
“The Pope Foundation is always honored to help these vital humanitarian
nonprofits with financial support, support that is leveraged by their great
volunteers and staff,” said Art Pope, President and Chairman of the Pope
Foundation.
“With the added uncertainty and potential increase in need due to a
partial federal government shutdown, the Pope Foundation decided to give
earlier and more to help these private and volunteer charitable institutions
fill the gap and offer a hand up to those most in need,” Pope said. …
The grants are: http://lockerroom.johnlocke.org/2013/12/03/how-we-use-our-money-is-a-moral-issue-ah-yes-about-that/
I sure would like to see a list of Barber's donations to the poor!
