The situation that brought that to mind was this: My grandfather was an old tinkerer. He loved working in his garage. He and my grandmother were quite poor, but he would build a few spinning wheels in his garage every year for the local Christian gradeschool and donate them (where they brought in several hundred dollars a piece). The hobby was for him - it is how he relaxed, and he enjoyed it. But the fruits of the hobby went to service for the school/the church. That's my meaning...
