Zakat yang disalurkan ke mustahik (yang berhak atas zakat) akan mempengaruhi ekonomi mereka jika penyalurannya hanya fokus pada usaha produktif. Pada penelitian ini, para peneliti ingin mengetahui seberapa besar peranan Zakat Community Development (ZCD/Pengembangan Masyarakat melalui Zakat) melalui penyediaan program ternak bergilir yang digalakkan oleh BAZNAZ (Badan Amil Zakat Nasional) Lampung untuk memberdayakan masyarakat. Penelitian ini merupakan studi lapangan dengan menggunakan metode campuran atau kombinasi dari metode kualitatif dan kuantitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan yaitu observasi, wawancara, dan dokumen pendukung. Terdapat 27 responden sebagai populasi penelitian dan sampel pada penelitian ini terdiri atas 27 responden juga atau seluruh populasi pada penelitian ini. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, didapatkan tingkat signifikan sebesar 0,105 atau > 0,05. Maka dapat diartikan bahwa peran ZCD tidak mempengaruhi pemberdayaan masyarakat dikarenakan kurangnya pengawasan, kontrol, dan evaluasi dari BAZNAZ Lampung melalui program ternak bergilir. Hal ini bertentangan dengan harapan yang menyatakan bahwa penyediaan modal dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat dan mengubah mustahik menjadi muzakki (orang yang wajib membayar zakat).

In this study, we developed agro sector mapping of current condition, problems, threats, potentials, and strategic policies in rural area in East Seram, Maluku Province especially in Bula District. The aims of the agro mapping was to make food security planning in East Seram. The mapping process was conducted through literature study, observations, and data collecting through focus group discussion. The data were analyzed with descriptive analysis. We also collected the data based on 9 indicators of food security before and after 5 years of intervention in livestock program and capacity building. The data were calculated for their indicators and composite values, then analyzed to define food security improvement. Based on the data, livestock were still raised traditionally on pastures. To enhance food-security, the resilience should be built through: (1) the improvement of land productivity, including infrastructure, facilities for intensive livestock systems, and optimization of dry land’s potential; (2) water management; and (3) capacity building for communities. After the intervention, the food security level of Bula District change from priority 2 (severely vulnerable) to priority 4 (moderately vulnerable). It means building human centered community based and local resources management become important in food security strategic in rural area especially in East Seram, Maluku, Indonesia.

This chapter examines the Ford Foundation’s predominantly economics- and finance-based expertise, and the way it sustained the country’s largest and most expensive performing arts institutions: orchestras, operas, and conservatories. Ford accomplished its goals primarily through matching grants and endowments, hoping with matching requirements to diversify organizations’ funding sources and expand the public’s commitment to local arts. Based on the expert advice of economists and administrators, Ford intended endowments to be a permanent source of income for orchestras and conservatories, if they managed the invested principal properly. In practice, however, wealthy individuals on boards of trustees for institutions such as the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Juilliard School solidified their personal, social connections to elicit five-, six-, and sometimes seven-figure gifts. In general, ordinary citizens and the local community did not participate, and as a result, broad-based support never materialized. Orchestras and conservatories came back knocking on the foundation’s door again and again.

Through good and bad economic times, charitable gifts have continued to roll in largely unabated over the past half century. In a typical year, total charitable gifts of money now exceed 2 percent of gross domestic product. Moreover, charitable giving has nearly doubled in real terms since 1990, and the number of nonprofit organizations registered with the IRS grew by nearly 60 percent from 1995 to 2005. This study provides a perspective on the economic interplay of three types of actors: donors, charitable organizations, and government. How much is given annually? Who gives? Who are the recipients of these gifts? Would changes in the tax treatment of charitable contributions lead to more or less giving? How can charitable institutions design mechanisms to generate the greatest level of gifts? What about the effectiveness of seed money and matching grants?
