If you're wondering where the money you give to charities goes, USA Today has the answer for you: outlandish CEO pay. The article reports that many CEOs of non-profits take home multiple millions every year. As the article notes, it's likely that many of the people who contribute to these organizations had no idea how much the CEO raked off. Good piece.
