I’ve heard other organizations say that 100% of donations go directly to programs. Why don’t 100% of donations to LWR go toward programs (relief in Haiti, in this situation)?
LWR is known for its high efficiency ratio. LWR’s combined general management and fundraising percentage compares very favorably with similar international relief and development organizations, and exceeds the efficiency of many organizations. If 100% of your donations were directed solely to program costs, the support costs would need to be recovered from elsewhere. Since a small portion of your Haiti donation covers the support costs associated with the relief effort, you can be assured that our other programs and work throughout the world are not negatively affected.
