I believe in financial responsibility in several ways, one of which is giving funds to endeavors that benefit others. One area I evaluate my giving as being poorer than I want it to be is international giving. Someone mentioned World Vision as an international agency and, after checking it on Charity Navigator (Philanthropy.com’s article about CN’s evaluation methods), I can understand the concern some folks have about the salary of World Vision’s president. There are valid evaluations and arguments for either viewpoint (he should/should not earn that salary working for a non-profit/NGO) but regardless of those comments I’m still considering whether to utilize that agency as a method to give internationally.
