Muhammad Yunus Quotes About Charity

• Cuando desaparezca la pobreza, tendremos que construir museos para mostrar sus horrores a las generaciones futuras. Se preguntarán por qué la pobreza perduró tanto tiempo en la sociedad humana, cómo unos pocos podían vivir en el lujo mientras miles de millones moraban en la miseria, la privación y la desesperación.

• When we want to help the poor, we usually offer them charity. Most often we use charity to avoid recognizing the problem and finding the solution for it. Charity becomes a way to shrug off our responsibility. But charity is no solution to poverty. Charity only perpetuates poverty by taking the initiative away from the poor. Charity allows us to go ahead with our own lives without worrying about the lives of the poor. Charity appeases our consciences.

  Muhammad Yunus

  Opportunity, People, Support
