Rev. Tim Costello's Bloated Pay Packet

nader — Fri, 08 May 2015 02:37:19 +0000

2.2 billion people live on less than $2 a day and over 1 billion live in extreme poverty, trying to survive on just $1.25 per day.

Given these appalling facts the work of Aid agencies like Oxfam, World Vision, Save The Children etc is vital.

But what is a reasonable amount to pay someone who heads one of these agencies?

In the case of TIM COSTELLO from World Vision the answer is disturbing to say the least.

His “total remuneration” package is $316,000 per year.

In findings released by ChangePath, 650 charities across 25 sectors were compared to see just how transparent they were about where their money had gone.
