A local charity office realized that it had never received a
donation from the town's most successful lawyer. The director
called him, hoping to get a contribution.
"Our research shows that out of a yearly income of at least
$500,000, you've given not a penny to charity. Wouldn't you like
to give back to the community in some way?"
The lawyer replied, "First, did your research also show that my
mother is dying after a long illness, and has medical bills that
are several times her annual income?"
Embarrassed, the director mumbled, "Um... no."
"Or that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to
a wheelchair?" The stricken director began to stammer out an
apology but was interrupted. "Or that my sister's husband died in
a car accident," the lawyer's voice rising in indignation,
"leaving her penniless with three children?!"
The humiliated director said simply, "I had no idea."
"So if I don't give any money to them, why the hell would I give
any to you?"
