The Wounded Warrior Project gets 89% rating on charity navigator. A separate organization from the the Wounded Warrior Family that gets a 100% rating shown in this post.
A four star general makes $203,688 per year.
The founder of Tunnels to Tower did it to honor his brother - a firefighter - who died in 9/11. Very impressive.
It's hard to judge the fairness of salaries of a President of a large charity. It is still a business. And the salary of $365,000 is in line with businesses with that revenue and reach.
Maybe low.
Whether all the high salaries are justified/necessary is questionable. But because it a charity does not mean that the executives should work for less than market.
The President of the American Heart Association gets over $3,000,000.
There are many examples of over $1,000,000 salaries.
And there are many generals employed by private industry, the media or the government that make far more than $365,000 paid to this former general.
