"Whether it was intended to help the homeless or cure cancer, donating money to charity before Sept. 11 [2001] was a form of absolution. Letters came in, people wrote checks, and they felt better. Since then, more than $1 billion has been pledged and $631 million collected to aid those affected by the terrorist attacks." (TIME) The author questions Americans who have donated record amounts of money to victims of the terrorist attacks: "Is that money helping?".
