家庭慈善事业中的好报价manbetx安卓版最新版下载
There’s been an interesting discussion going on for some time at the Chronicle of Philanthropy’s LinkedIn页on “Best Philanthropy Quotes.”
We’ve been following it for a while, and while there are indeed many great quotes included in the conversation, we’ve been a bit disappointed that only a very few of those featured come from donors – and few if any touch upon the passions, values and special challenges of family philanthropy.
With this in mind, we asked those in our Friends of the Family network to share some of their own Great Quotes in Family Philanthropy. We added a few from the National Center’s seminal report,The Power to Produce Wonders，以及NCFP总裁金妮·埃斯波西托（Ginny Esposito）的个人收藏集。最后，我们包括了20世纪和21世纪的几位知名家庭慈善家的一些。
We hope you enjoy this first-ever (that we know of) collection of “Great Quotes in Family Philanthropy.” Please be sure to share your own favorite quotes – from someone famous or from your own grandmother (or from your famous grandmother) – in the comments section below!

来自产生奇迹的力量：慈善事业的家庭价值
“Family foundations, for good and ill, have something of a personality that is different from other institutions, even other grantmaking institutions. That personality allows for more original initiative – more unconstrained thought about how to set and do the work of the organization. Sometimes you have a freedom, a quirkiness of character, that allows you to think of things and do things others might not.”
– Interviewee,The Power to Produce Wonders
“家庭慈善事业的挑战是找到尊重赠款的manbetx安卓版最新版下载遗产和创始人创新的“甜蜜点”，但仍发现重点是今天有所作为。随着世代的流逝，这越来越难。”

You stay connected and do work together that keeps you attached to your community or something topical.The work keeps you together with the people that matter to you.”
– Interviewee,The Power to Produce Wonders

“如果私人慈善机构是一项了不起的社会发明，那么它对家庭的可用性同样出色。社会向家庭提供了实际上有权独立参与事务的许可证，否则将被认为是公众的业务。慈善事业成为一个合法而令人难以置信的过程，将亲属关系的事故提升到了更高的公民参与和责任领域。个人经常狭窄的局限性，即开放到社会关注的宽广的远景中。”
–Paul Ylvisaker,Conscience and Community

–Paul Ylvisaker,Conscience and Community
“The returns on a family investment in philanthropy are – or can be – extremely high, both internally and externally. When such an investment is well executed, a family can achieve the cohesion that comes with a sense of higher purpose and cooperative effort. Family members report an excitement and fulfillment going far beyond what they had known as related (though often bloodied) members of a tribe.”
–Paul Ylvisaker,Conscience and Community
“Building a foundation on the fragile relationships that characterize any family is a precarious enterprise, but the returns are worth the risk and all the tensions that go with it.”
–Paul Ylvisaker,Conscience and Community
“随着时间的流逝，家庭成员会改变和计划优先事项变化；将家庭及其慈善事业融合在一起的是其价值观的遗产。这种遗产提供了连续性，我们的捐助者家族认为，连续性（家庭价值观）赋予了家庭慈善事业的特殊特征。”manbetx安卓版最新版下载
