The easiest way is to go to "Guidestar.org" or "Charitynavigator.org" and search for a charity. You may also need to log in using an account that you can set up for free with a username and password.

Note that there are many copycat charities with very similar names. Be careful that you find the charity that you are seeking.

Not apples and oranges at all. They both have their own skillsets that have value...

I get it. Whatever a poster says, you say the opposite. But, so far, 14 posters have said they stopped donating to WWP because of the high salaries. By the way, military people are not paid for their skillset. They are paid based on their rank. But, when you work for a charity, you are supposed to be charitable. That is why Frank Siller and all of his managers receive no compensation.

Where is that written down?

Is that part of everyone's employment contract? Even the janitor who cleans the offices at night?

BTW, there are only a handful people in T2T who receive zero compensation. They still paid out 11-13%% in salary/wages from 2013-2019, dropping to 8.4% in 2020

As a contrast WWP paid out 5.4% in administrative costs (the most recent #s I can find...)

And why did those 14 posters say the will or have stopped donating to WWP? Most likely due to the previous CEO who was fleecing the organization, throwing lavish parties, etc. The new guy put an end to that... He's doing a damn good job righting the ship, if you ask me... And in my opinion, his salary is not a problem.

Those who stopped donating most likely didn't do their research and are relying on incorrect data, such as we've seen posted on this thread...

Personally, I've only given to the Gary Sinese Foundation. That is MY choice. I looked into the foundation and I'm happy with my decision.

If you're happy giving to T2T, great! Just don't post incorrect info trashing other foundations...

A Useful Thread
 

What I have learned:

1 Charitynavigator.org was the best site to use for searching organizations. I didn't have to register or "upgrade" to get what I looking for.

2 The rating scale seemed objective.

3 Each description gave you the organization's website and stated if you would find the IRS form 990 on the website. I found it under "financials"on each website that I looked at. That is where you find the top executive salaries.

4 Each website had a pie chart showing the percentage of donations that went directly to the cause.

5 It seemed that the non-for-profit organizations are taking the scrutiny of the educated donors very seriously. Everything is there to see. If we don't like what we see, we will give elsewhere.

Educate yourself rather that watching an ad or listening to someone's opinion.
There are some excellent organizations out there and they deserve our support.

Thank you to all of the posters.

Thank you.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Gary would be the best choice for POTUS, hands down.:bigbow:
