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.
Philanthropy officer getting paid the least, right behind the actual zoo director.
I’m sure the “executive leadership” and possibly even c-suite is bigger than these 5 people. There are definitely more employees. These are just the top 5.
