gullu Posted November 29, 2006 Posted November 29, 2006 Got this in email today, although would like to verify it somehow.. As you open your pockets for yet another natural disaster, keep these facts in mind: Marsha J. Evans, President and CEO, of the American Red Cross... salary for year ending 06/30/03 was $651,957 plus expenses . Brian Gallagher, President of the United Way receives a $375,000 base salary, plus numerous expense benefits. The Salvation Army's Commissioner Todd Bassett receives a salary of only $13,000 per year (plus housing) for managing this $2 billion dollar organization. No further comment necessary
Dhondy Posted November 29, 2006 Posted November 29, 2006 Re: Charity The British Red Cross copped some adverse publicity a while back too. If true, this is shocking.
beetle Posted November 29, 2006 Posted November 29, 2006 Re: Charity I believe most of the money given to most high profile agencies goes towards keeping a lot of people comfortably employed.Read somewhere about some of the child care agencies(won't name as i have no proof ....)....90%of money donated by people goes towards pays ....sad
gullu Posted November 29, 2006 Author Posted November 29, 2006 Re: Charity Too bad I got this email after I had donated a day's salary to united way
