With Charity For All

Each year the average American household donates almost $2700 to charity.&#160; Yet most donors know little about the American charitable sector and the nonprofit organizations they support.&#160; In <i>With Charity For All</i> former NPR CEO Ken Stern exposes a&#160;field that few know: 1.1 million organizations 10% of the national workforce and $1.5 trillion in annual revenues.&#160; He chronicles the many flaws in the charity system from tax-exempt charities such as bowl games&#160; roller derby leagues and beer festivals to charitable hospitals that pay their executives into the millions to--worst of all--organizations that raise millions of dollars without ever cracking the problem they have pledged to solve.<br>&#160;<br><i>With Charity For All </i>provides an unflinching look at the philathropic sector but also offers an inspiring prescription for individual giving and widespread reform.
