15、ire to help those in need, Megan and Dennis Doyle of Minneapolis decided they wanted to do more than just volunteer or write a check. Instead, they took $30,000 of their own money and started a nonprofit called Hope for the City. The organization collects corporate overstock and distributes it to no

16、nprofits in the Twin Cities, nationwide, and internationally to 26 developing countries. Today the nonprofit has a $900, 000 operating budget and a 25,000 sq.ft. warehouse to store the donated items and has distributed nearly $380 million of in-kind merchandise since its inception. “This makes us fe

17、el like were a part of something a lot bigger than just the two of us,“ says Dennis, 54, who is CEO of a local commercial real estate firm. The Doyles are not alone in their desire to give back. There are more than 1 million 501 (c) (3) charities like theirs, up nearly 70% from the 614,000 that exis

Organizations dedicated to education, disaster relief, job development, the environment and AIDS are among todays “hot causes, “ says Phyllis McGrath, president of P

19、hilanthropy Management, a Fairfield, Conn., consulting firm that works with nonprofits nationwide. Fueling this growth are several factors: baby boomers with a social-entrepreneurship mind-set and added time in their lives to give back to their communities, such tragic events as Sept. 11 and Hurrica

20、ne Katrina, and greater numbers of wealthy individuals with the funds to launch their own nonprofits. But starting a nonprofit is a Herculean effort, requiring patience and determination. It may take at least six months to a year and as much as 30 to 40 hours a week to get an organization off the gr

21、ound, McGrath says. Hiring an attorney experienced with nonprofits to handle statewide and federal applications is key.

But even with the best of intentions, nonprofits have a high failure rate : only one-third survive beyond five years, says Stan Madden, director of the Center for Nonprofit Studies at the Hankamer School of Business at Baylor University in Waeo, Texas. The best approach is to start

24、with a business plan. Research other organizations in the field to make sure there is no other group addressing the same cause. Consult with other charities to determine that there are constituents who can really use your services. As McGrath notes, “Consider a realistic and doable niche that your o

25、rganization can uniquely fill. “ That is just what Beth Shaw, 41, did. The owner of a $4 million company that trains yoga fitness instructors worldwide, Shaw used her knowledge of the market to launch Visionary Women in Fitness, which provides scholarships to underprivileged women so that they can t

26、rain to become instructors. With a budget of just $30,000, the nonprofit, based in Hermosa Beach, Calif., is able to help 15 to 20 women a year learn a skill that can get them an entry-level job. “I have two homes and a successful business, so many young women out there have nothing,“ says Shaw, who

His entrance awoke his wife, w

33、ho was in bed and fast asleep when he came in. He talked to her while he undressed, telling her anecdotes and bits of news and gossip that he had gathered during the day. From his trousers pockets he took a fistful of crumpled bank notes and a good deal of silver coin, which he piled on the bureau i

34、ndiscriminately with keys, knife, handkerchief, and whatever else happened to be in his pockets, she was overcome with sleep, and answered him with little half utterances.He thought it very discouraging that his wife, who was the sole object of his existence, evinced so little interest in things whi

35、ch concerned him, and valued so little his conversation.Mr. Pontellier had forgotten the bonbons and peanuts for the boys. Notwithstanding he loved them very much, and went into the adjoining room where they were resting comfortably. The result of his investigation was far from satisfactory. He turn

36、ed and shifted the youngsters about in bed. One of them began to kick and talk about a basket full of crabs.Mr. Pontellier returned to his wife with the information that Raoul had a high fever and needed looking after. Then he lit a cigar and went and sat near the open door to smoke it.Mrs. Pontelli

37、er was quite sure Raoul had no fever. He had gone to bed perfectly well, she said, and nothing had ailed him all day. Mr. Pontellier was too will acquainted with fever symptoms to be mistaken. He assured her the child was consuming at that moment in the next room.He reproached his wife with her inat

38、tention, her habitual neglect of the children. If it was not a mothers place to look after children, whose on earth was it? He himself had his hands full with his brokerage business. He could not be in two places at once; making a living for his family on the street, and staying at home to see that

39、no harm befell them. He talked in a monotonous, insistent way.Mrs. Pontellier sprang out of bed and went into the next room. She soon came back and sat on the edge of the bed, leaning her head down on the pillow. She said nothing, and refused to answer her husband when he questioned her. When his ci

40、gar was smoked out he went to bed, and in half a minute he was fast asleep.Mrs. Pontellier was by that time thoroughly awake. She began to cry a little, and wiped her eyes on the sleeve of her peignoir. Blowing out the candle, which her husband had left burning, she slipped her bare feet into a pair

41、 of satin mules at the foot of the bed and went out on the porch, where she sat down in the wicker chair and began to rock gently to and fro.It was then past midnight. The cottages were all dark. A single faint light gleamed out from the hallway of the house. There was no sound abroad except the hoo

42、ting of an old owl in the top of a water-oak, and the everlasting voice of the sea, that was not uplifted at that soft hour. It broke like a mournful lullaby upon the night.The tears came so fast to Mrs. Pontellier s eyes that the damp sleeve of her peignoir no longer served to dry them. She was hol

43、ding the back of her chair with one hand; her loose sleeve had slipped almost to the shoulder of her uplifted arm. Turning, she thrust her face, steaming and wet, into the bend of her arm, and she went on crying there, not caring any longer to dry her face, her eyes, her arms. She could not have tol

44、d why she was crying. Such experiences as the foregoing were not uncommon in her married life. They seemed never before to have to have weighed much against the abundance of her husbands kindness and a uniform devotion which had come to be tacit and self-understood.An indescribable oppression, which

45、 seemed to generate in some unfamiliar part of her consciousness, filled her whole being with a vague anguish. It was like a shadow, like a mist passing across her souls summer day. It was strange and unfamiliar; it was a mood. She did not sit there inwardly upbraiding her husband, lamenting at Fate

46、, which had directed her footsteps to the path which they had taken. She was just having a good cry all to herself. The mosquitoes made merry over her, biting her firm, round arms and nipping at her bare insteps.The little stinging, buzzing imps succeeded in dispelling a mood which might have held h
