In Edith Wharton’s book Summer the main character Charity Royall is the daughter of the most influential man in town and yet she doesn’t want anything more than to escape from her small town of North Dormer and her lonely father figure that inhabits it. Mr. Royall took her down from the Mountain when she was a child and has raised her as his own since she was young, but after the death of his wife he has resorted to drinking to heal his loneliness, and later in his weakened state turns to Charity to cure his loneliness. Though his first proposal could be seen as “disgusting” and “incest” in that he tries to enter Charity’s room while he is drunk, when he later asks her to marry him for the third time, he is clear headed and believes this is the best option for Charity. At first Charity is disgusted by herself for giving in to Mr. Royall’s advances, after a silent agreement between her and Mr. Royall in which she realizes he has no intention of making her do anything she doesn’t want to do, she realizes that this is the best outcome for her and accepts her fate.

The Charity Organization Society was based in the scientific movement of organizations. Workers believed that charity work needed more definition and organization and that charity should be focused more on individual need rather than as a whole population. Focusing on individual need was intended to improve relief operations while making resources more efficient. They also intended to eliminate public outdoor relief. With the promotion of more organization and efficiency the new Charity Organization Societies were born. Trattner states that these new requirements for organization and efficiency spread so “rapidly that within 6 years 25 cities had such organizations and by the turn of the century there were some 138 of them in

Meet Jim and Charlie, our favorite father-son duo. The whole family has been volunteering with the MCC for many years, and Charlie is now a high school freshman.

My greatest talent is running long distances, a hobby that I’ve demonstrated to benefit people since my sophomore year. I discovered my passion through cross country, in which I saw as an opportunity to serve the disadvantaged from my enjoyment. I use running to fundraise for donation organizations and it is product of immaculate conception that I absolutely love doing, which is racing and seeing the crowd cheering as I am helping Make-A-Wish Foundation patients. This organization grants many sick kids’ wishes when they cannot be able to afford it, and it was a donation organization that contacted me out of the many well-known non-profit charities. The marathon in Riverside, The Mission Inn Run, was a magnet of audience that I gained hundreds of donations that they gave to the foundation. My finishing place awed many people, especially experienced runners and they

A not for profit organization is a corporation or an association that conducts business for the benefit of the general public without shareholders and without a profit motive (Legal, 2013).” There are immense community benefits as a not-for-profit generally accepts everyone regardless of ability to pay. Nonprofit organizations are granted tax-exempt status which helps them to provide services to the public and are expected to be effective managers of their finances as well as being efficient (Financial Management, 2010).
