My email has been down due to a spam attack on the servers. I can give you an example of why it can be risky. My brother has been in and out of jail numerous times. he's been on drugs. He's made lots of bad decisions. Most of the time when you go out of your way to help him, not much comes out of it.There are some people that if you you invest in them a lot comes out of it. I guess the thing is when you have invested time and money into one person, they have an individual decision to make with what God has given them. Now if you want to invest in an organization, more than likely there's multiple people making decisions, which results in better accountability. If i give them $1,000 it will make a little bit of an impact, because more than likely they have to cover the costs of overhead and other things. but if i give that $1,000 to an individual who needs to buy a car so they can go to work to provide for their family, then you can see the impact that has. Maybe it is just my opinion that investing in individuals can be risky, but compared to a mega church giant organization, individuals do have more room to grow. I am sorry i havn’t responded earlier.
