Nilikuwa<\/span> na umri wa miaka kumi nilipopata dola yangu ya kwanza kutokana na kukata yadi. Mama yangu alijivunia kazi yangu na alipendekeza kwa upole kwamba nifikirie kutoa zaka ya mapato yangu kwa kanisa letu. Kwa muda mrefu nilioweza kukumbuka, nilikuwa nimewaona wazazi wangu wakichangia sahani ya sadaka ya kanisa ilipopitishwa wakati wa matoleo. Walitupatia mara kwa mara chenji za kuweka kwenye sahani, lakini hii ilikuwa mara ya kwanza ambapo nilipata fursa ya kutoa kitu kutokana na mapato yangu mwenyewe. Pendekezo lake mara moja lilihisi kama jambo sahihi kufanya. Nilijivunia na kufurahiya kuweka senti moja ya mapato yangu katika toleo la Shule ya Jumapili. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nikiwa na watoto wanne wa kuwalisha na kuwavisha, wazazi wangu hawakuwahi kuwa na pesa nyingi. Kama watoto wa Unyogovu Mkuu, walijua thamani ya dola na waliishi bila shida. Tulifundishwa kuweka akiba na zaka na kutumia pesa zetu kwa busara. <\/span><\/p>\n

Tukiwa watu wazima mimi na ndugu zangu tulishuhudia na kujionea ukarimu wa wazazi wetu kwa wakati na pesa. Walitoa ardhi ambayo juu yake ilijengwa kanisa jipya. Pia kulikuwa na matendo madogo ya fadhili na ukarimu. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kwa mfano, siku moja mwendesha baiskeli alikuja katika biashara ya baba yangu iliyokuwa karibu na barabara kuu. Gurudumu la mbele la baiskeli yake lilikuwa limegonga shimo na kutikisika vibaya. Mwendesha baiskeli alikuwa amechoka na alitaka kuuza baiskeli yake ya barabarani kwa tiketi ya basi ya kurudi nyumbani. Baba hakuwa na uhitaji wa baiskeli, lakini alimpa kijana huyo dola 50 na kuweka baiskeli ya barabarani na ukingo wake wa mbele uliopinda kwenye banda. Miaka mingi baadaye, watoto wangu walirekebisha gurudumu na kunipa baiskeli kama zawadi ya siku ya kuzaliwa. Kila wakati ninapoendesha baiskeli yangu ya barabarani iliyotengenezwa Kiitaliano, ninamfikiria kijana huyo miaka mingi iliyopita na kukumbuka huruma na ukarimu wa baba yangu. Charity ilikuwa thamani ambayo wazazi wangu waliishi kila siku. <\/span><\/p>\n

M<\/span> y kazi ya kwanza ya wakati wote baada ya chuo kikuu ilikuwa na wizara ya vijana ya kitaifa. Nilitakiwa kuongeza mshahara wangu mwenyewe, na kwa miaka 13, ningeandika barua ya maombi ya kila mwezi kwa orodha ya watu ambao niliamini wangeomba na kutegemeza huduma yangu kifedha. Orodha yangu ya barua pepe ilikuwa na uzito wa watu wanaonijua mimi au wazazi wangu; wazazi wangu walikuwa wafadhili wangu wakubwa na thabiti zaidi. <\/span><\/p>\n

Baadaye nikawa mkurugenzi mtendaji wa sura ya ndani ya wizara. Sehemu kubwa ya jukumu hili ilihusisha kuongeza bajeti kupitia mawasiliano ya wafadhili na matukio maalum ya kukusanya fedha. Wafadhili wakubwa na thabiti zaidi walikuwa wale ambao walikuwa na uhusiano wa kibinafsi na huduma: mara nyingi wao wenyewe waliwahi kuwa wanufaika wa huduma, au walikuwa wazazi au wanafamilia wa wale ambao huduma iliwahudumia. Walitoa kwa shukrani kwa kazi yetu. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ofisi ya kitaifa ya wizara ya vijana ilifadhili vipindi maalum vya televisheni vinavyowashirikisha wasanii maarufu kama vile Johnny Cash. Ili kushiriki, sura za ndani zilihitajika kukusanya $25,000. Kando na bodi yangu iliyochangia, tulikusanya pesa hizi kupitia ufadhili, kwa kuwa mpango haukuruhusu matangazo (kwa vile michango hiyo ilizingatiwa michango ya hisani). <\/span><\/p>\n

Programu iliyorekodiwa ilitoa nafasi kwa sehemu za moja kwa moja na viongozi wa eneo hilo, kama vile meya, mkuu wa polisi, na hakimu wa mahakama ya watoto. Nilipata kupata usaidizi wa watu hawa mashuhuri nchini kuwa rahisi kiasi, na ushiriki wao ulikuwa sehemu ya mauzo katika kupata ufadhili wa biashara. Hoja kubwa ya ushiriki wa wafadhili ilikuwa matarajio kwamba mchango wao ungezidishwa na michango mingi midogo. Pesa mpya zinazolingana zilizoahidiwa zinazotolewa na programu zingeruhusu wizara kupanua kazi na ushawishi wake katika jumuiya yetu. Kipindi maalum cha Televisheni kinachoangazia mahitaji ya vijana na familia kilifanikiwa na pia kiliongeza mamia ya majina mapya kwenye orodha yetu ya wanaopokea barua pepe. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kuanzia<\/span> 1995 nimehudumu kama mwakilishi wa Chuo Kikuu cha William Penn kwenye bodi ya wadhamini ya Clarence na Lilly Pickett Endowment kwa Uongozi wa Quaker. Clarence na Lilly Pickett walihitimu kutoka kile kilichokuwa Chuo cha Penn, mwaka wa 1910 na 1909 mtawalia. Akiwa mchungaji kijana wa College Avenue Friends Church huko Oskaloosa, Iowa, Clarence aliwashauri vijana waliozingatia kukataa kujiunga na jeshi kwa sababu ya dhamiri ya kushiriki katika Vita vya Kwanza vya Ulimwengu. Alihudumu kama katibu wa bodi ya Young Friends Activities of the Mikutano ya Miaka Mitano kuanzia 1919 hadi 1922. Katika msimu wa 1923, alijiunga na Earlham professor College of biblical College hadi pia alitumikia chuo kikuu cha Earlham kama profesa wa historia ya biblia. 1929. Kisha alianza utumishi wake wa muda mrefu kama katibu mkuu wa American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), akistaafu mwaka wa 1950. <\/span><\/p>\n

Maono ya Wakfu wa Pickett yaliibuka kutoka kwa marafiki wa Pickett na wanafamilia ya Pickett ambao walitaka kuheshimu mchango wa Clarence na Lilly kwa uanaharakati wa Quaker. Wanachama wawili wa bodi ya waanzilishi walikuwa muhimu katika kukusanya sehemu kubwa ya fedha za awali za Wakfu wa Pickett: Wilmer Tjossem na Steve Cary wote walimfahamu Clarence na wote walijulikana sana katika ulimwengu wa Quaker, wakiwa wamehudumu kama wafanyikazi wa AFSC. Wengi wa wafadhili wa awali walitoa kwa sababu ya uhusiano wao wa kibinafsi, ama kwa Picketts au kwa Wilmer Tjossem au Steve Cary. <\/span><\/p>\n

Michango kwa Madaraka ya Clarence na Lilly Pickett imepungua kasi katika miaka 15 iliyopita. Wale ambao hapo awali walikuwa na muunganisho wa kibinafsi na Picketts wamepita. Baraza la sasa la wadhamini linakabiliwa na changamoto ya kupata kizazi kipya cha wafuasi. Tangu 1994 endaumenti imetoa ruzuku ya jumla ya zaidi ya $297,000 kwa zaidi ya wanaruzuku 150, na ni kundi hili la wanaruzuku ambalo tunahisi ni muhimu kwa usaidizi unaoendelea wa wakfu. <\/span><\/p>\n

Familia ya M<\/span> y hupokea rufaa ya fedha nusu dazeni au zaidi kwa wiki kutoka kwa mashirika ya aina zote; miongoni mwao ni idadi nzuri ya mashirika ya Quaker. Ninatoa kwa Shirika la Moyo la Marekani kwa sababu miaka kadhaa iliyopita nilifanyiwa upasuaji wa kubadilisha vali ya moyo yenye kasoro. Ninatoa kwa Wakfu wa Saratani ya Prostate kwa sababu baba yangu alikufa kutokana na ugonjwa huo. Kwa miaka mingi tuliwaunga mkono Watafsiri wa Biblia wa Wycliffe kwa sababu mtu wa ukoo wa mke wangu alihudumu katika shirika hilo. Tunatoa kwa kanisa letu la mtaa la Quaker, mkutano wa kila mwaka, na programu za Mkutano wa Friends United kwa sababu tunahusika kibinafsi katika kazi yao. Tunatoa kiasi kidogo kwa mashirika mengine kadhaa ya Quaker kwa sababu tunaamini katika misheni yao. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ninafurahia kuandika ukaguzi wa michango ya hisani. Kutoa kulifundishwa kama kanuni ya kibiblia na kuigwa na wazazi wangu katika maisha yao yote. Mtazamo wao wa usahili ulisababisha kizuizi cha kufahamu cha matumizi: kuishi kulingana na uwezo wao. Zaka ya mapato yao ilijengwa katika matumizi haya. Kutoa, kama ninavyoelewa, ni jibu la kumshukuru Mungu kwa maisha na baraka zake: Mungu humpenda yeye atoaye kwa moyo wa ukunjufu (2 Wakorintho 9:7). Nimegundua kuwa tunda moja la unyenyekevu ni kuwa na mapato zaidi ya kutoa! Ninaposaidia kanisa letu, mfanyakazi katika shirika la Kikristo, au shirika lingine lisilo la faida, ninashiriki katika misheni na kupanua ushawishi wangu kwa wema ulimwenguni. Ndio maana natoa. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
