A good reminder with the holiday giving season ahead.
SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS:
As you open your
pockets to do a good thing and
make yourself feel good, please keep the following facts in mind:
The American Red Cross
President and CEO Marsha
J. Evans'
salary for the year was
$651,957 plus expenses
MARCH OF DIMES
It is called the March
of Dimes because
only a dime for every 1
dollar is given to the needy.
The United Way
President Brian
Gallagher
receives a $375,000 base
salary along with numerous expense benefits.
UNICEF
CEO Caryl M. Stern

$1,200,000 per year (100k per month) plus all expenses including a ROLLS ROYCE.
Less than 5 cents of your donated dollar goes to the cause.
GOODWILL
CEO and owner Mark Curran
profits $2.3 million a year.
Goodwill is a very catchy name for his business.
You donate to his business and then he sells the items for
PROFIT.
He pays nothing for his products and pays his workers minimum wage! Nice
Guy.
$0.00 goes to help anyone!
Stop giving to this man.
