爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导

Just about this time a group of Philadelphia physicians, headed by Doctor Samuel McClintock Hamill, which had formed itself into a hygienic committee for babies, waited upon Bok to ask him to join them in the creation of a permanent organization devoted to the welfare of babies and children. Bok found that he was dealing with a company of representative physicians, and helped to organize "The Child Federation," an organization "to do good on a business basis."

白话

费城一群医生在哈米尔博士带领下组成婴儿卫生委员会,来找博克,希望一起成立一个长期机构,专门照顾婴儿和儿童。博克发现这些人都是有名望的医生,便参与组建“儿童联合会”,宗旨是“用做生意的方式做好事”。意思是:公益不能只靠热心,要像经营企业一样讲效率、讲方法、讲可持续,才能把好事做大做久。

上下文

20世纪初美国进步时代,公共卫生和儿童福利运动兴起,博克以媒体人身份参与其中。

今日一问

你参与的公益或助人行动,有没有像做生意一样算过效率和可持续性?
