I was planning to donate the couple bucks I had left over from the year to the charity called “San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance”, I was doing a background check on CharityNavigator and they gave the charity full ratings so it seemed good.

Then I stumbled upon the salary section. What the fuck? I earn <20k a year and was planning to contribute to someone’s million dollar salary? WHAT.

I took a huge pay cut when I worked for a non profit. :(

    I quit nonprofit because the salary is real bad. Like 25% of what I currently make.

    They're in a catch-22. They can't hire quality people because they need funds but then you see things like this like, "Why are they paying this guy so much?" And continues a neverending cycle of low wages.
