Charities are becoming market-oriented; faith-based organizations are engaging in civic initiatives; social innovators are turning charitable gifts into investments; and the social sector is growing more complex as local communities find new ways to address the needs of those left behind. This book examines the developing trend to assist those in need in ways that deliver real results by changing lives and changing how charity is practiced. Streeter provides concrete examples and draws connections to the larger movement in America to strengthen the institutions of civil society.
