Traidmission has made a commitment to help those who are in a position to help others, to complement existing programs
and add experience and expertise to those who wish to develop new projects.....
It is not from your own possessions that you are bestowing alms on the poor, you are but restoring to them what is theirs by right.
For what was given
to everyone for the use of all, you have taken for your exclusive use. The earth belongs not to the rich, but to everyone.
Thus, far from giving
lavishly, you are but paying part of your debt.
(St Ambrose, 340-397ad)
