United Way Chief’s Pay Raises an Issue
- Share via
Thanks for the article on the three top foundation chiefs who are each paid more than $500,000 a year, “High-Priced Heads of Foundations” (Sept. 8).
The article also included salaries of the former and the newly appointed president of United Way.
Women in the United States currently earn 65 cents for every $1 a man earns. At United Way, former Peace Corps Director Elaine Chao will be paid $195,000 a year, which is 50 cents for each dollar that her $390,000-a-year ousted predecessor, William Aramony, was paid.
At that rate, United Way is pulling the average way down.
