I'm with you Tracy on the face to face helping the one your with. It stems from my feeling that now is the time to come to the aid of our country. Misanthropy is often the direct product of many non-profits, in part because they are not a peer of the target population. Your changing the conversation does seem to head directly into a path of peer relationship leading to philanthopy not misanthropy. You have changed my conversation - Thank You By Tracy Gary

"Where do you give or volunteer?" In the South, in certain circles, the questions are, "Where do you go to Church?" And, "What did your Daddy do?" In the North, in certain circles, it is, "What do you do? Where did you go to school?" Interesting to see what "framework" people use in defining their identity. "What do you do for love?" That might open some conversations, or get you tossed off the plane. “What do you care about?” “Where do you give or volunteer?” In the South, in certain circles, the questions are, “Where do you go to Church?” And, “What did your Daddy do?” In the North, in certain circles, it is, “What do you do?
