Well, shit. I was thinking of the fundraising efficiency coefficient used in the org I worked with years ago -- amount of each $1 raised that goes directly to aid recipients -- $0.02 of every dollar raised would not be that abnormal after fundraising expenses, salaries, etc., so it didn't look that outlandish. At lot of orgs spend hardly any money on aid. I've been looking at this wrong looking at CN for at least three years. Don't I feel stupid. (I'd still like to see some sort of independent confirmation that Invisible Children does anything besides make movies and pay $90,000 salaries to their founders though.)
