Easy charity check

Of every $100 spent, about $85.60 was reported for mission work. Use the spending picture below and ask what results that work produced.

Has the pattern changed?

Colored bars = expense mix: how each year’s expenses were divided. Total expenses vs. revenue shows whether the charity spent less or more than it received. The current filing is first.
