why do you get to say what salary anyone deserves?So why does the CEO of a volunteer organization deserve a salary seven times the amount of a typical government executive?So what? The volunteers are still not paid for their time and the grants they fund still go to the needy....you know like...Meals on wheels ...that takes no government money...that the United Way is on the board of directors of. And that liberals who do nothing to help ...but take credit for..I volunteer for United Way...I know how they fundraise. The majority of volunteers come from their corporate partners. They do not hire them. They have fundraising campaigns same time every year...volunteers not only donate their time...they also donate all incentives such as silent auction prizes and anything sold to benefit the charity. Corporate partners also give all their employees incentives to donate via payroll deduction i.e...extra PTO days, casual days, VIP parking for a year etc... they also match contributions dollar for dollar.Private charities rely on volunteers and donations to raise funds.
They also have highly paid executives who make more than government executives. Those donations do not come free. They hire people to fund raise, they pay for advertising
The CEO of the United Way makes $1.5 million a year. More than any government executive including the President
Is it because he is successful in finding suckers to volunteer?
