The great thing about volunteering at a soup kitchen or a food pantry is the proximity to those you are helping. My Mom Marie Bilodeau, who ran the food pantry at our church, returned home each week with personal stories about the people she helped. Her experiences always reminded me about a book I read in college called Irresistible Revolution by Shane Claiborne. The book had a profound effect on my view of the notion of philanthropy because it called to task any system of charity that necessarily insulates the gift-give from the receiver.
