What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.

Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue by $1,781,174 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.

Pay context: The highest compensation shown in this filing is $168,021 for JON TEMIN (VP OF POL. AND PROG. (TIL 12/24)). Compare pay with organizations of similar size and complexity.
