This story started on my third day as Chief Executive Officer of Christian Compassion Ministries Foundation, Inc. (CCMFI). I received a text message a few minutes past two in the afternoon. The Center Head of the Residential Care Program of CCMFI informed me that one of the patrons we have, would donate solar panels, and would take care of its installation. I was not excited then because a few years back there has been two offers of solar power installations for our church building, and both did not push through. The first one was an American Christian group that offered their technical expertise for free, but the materials will have to be bought by the church. Someone made a business analysis of that solar power project for the church and expressed his doubt on the viability of the same, because the return-of-investment was something like ten years of more. The second one, was from an Australian group that would donate materials only, but at that time of the Covid-19 Pandemic, everyone was too health-cautious and calculating. It appears that the Australian would-be-donors decided to install the system to another institution instead. The saga involved lessons in donor-donation ethics, volunteer fatigue or burnout, and stakeholder engagement.
