Excerpt from Method in Almsgiving: A Handbook for Helpers

Charitable work suffers for want of unity in method. When attempts are made to concentrate the resources of charity in any place, it often happens that the workers adopt such methods as commend themselves to their minds, and lose power for want of the experience which has been won elsewhere. The records of charitable work are sometimes in part unintelligible, because the methods of one Committee or Society are not similar to those of others, and therefore the fruit of common experience cannot be stored for common use.

In this volume the attempt is made to show why method in charitable work is desirable, and what methods are approved by the best experience. The working of a charitable Committee is described in detail; the duties of Secretary and Charity Agent are explained and illustrated; and the mode of handling a case is fully stated.

To cite two points only, the expediency of charitable loans and the manner of making them are set out at some length; and the possibility of providing pensions permanently, but faultlessly, for persons unable to maintain themselves is argued.

It is believed that information of value to all charitable workers, not readily accessible elsewhere, has been here collected in a small compass and handy form.
