An Interview with Charles Terry

Charles Terry's work with the Doors is admirable in that he was trying his best to help those who are much less fortunate than he is. It was interesting to hear him say that money could have ultimately changed him and his organization and that he was happy that they were always living on the edge. It made the mission seem much more organic, but he was still surprised that it was so difficult to raise money in such a wealthy state as New York is. When he started working for the Rockefeller Center, Charles started to feel the disconnect that comes with accruing wealth. As a man who deeply cared about helping it is refreshing to see him notice the changes around him. The interview also goes on to talk about his opinions on Philanthropy. Charles believes that its a lot more than just giving money, and he's right. If you're someone who is dedicated to helping others you are definitely putting others above your own well-being. He puts it as "giving your time and skills, and other non-monetary resources."
