Boy do I have something to tell you about a lot of non-profits...Take Susan G. Komen with breast cancer research...

In the organization’s 2010-2011 financial report it was revealed that Susan G. Komen only devotes 20.9 percent of the donations it receives to researching breast cancer.

My favorite one is that St Jude has 80 beds. 50% of their funding goes to fundraising or reserves.
