Today I learned: The Quakers launched a massive humanitarian effort for the Irish during that horrible famine.

So did the Choctaw tribe of native Americans. They donated about $170.00 at that time.

Surprised they were able to convert 3,000 people. Great work at the time. Interestingly enough, there are only 1,500 quakers on the island of Ireland today.

Quakers to put their money where there mouth is.
