In reply to sumac. Aarrrrrrrrgh! It's crap like this which makes me a member of THe Untied Way - definitely not the United Way. That executives are really and truly giving themselves six-and-seven-figure salaries at a CHARITY blows right past boggling the mind.

In reply to Patrick Di Justo. I dunno. If you're a corporate partner...?

Is there any way we can make sure the powers that be at Komen read this? Can we broadcast it into their Google glasses?

In reply to SMcC. Line pockets? When Nancy Brinker gets by on a paltry $400,000 a year?

24% is a staggeringly low number. That means 76% is being used to pat itself on the back, tell others they are awful if they don’t pat them on the back, and frankly some of it must be going to line pockets. The scandal has probably been devastating to their budget. Not only are donations down ( or not growing at their previous pace) , but they have to divert some of the back-patting money to toe first aid.

Susan Komen’s memory, and the organizations goal on her behalf, are not being served.

“To look sincere, it helps to be sincere.” BINGO. They need this on a post-it over every monitor in the building.
