I couldn't even read the whole thing; just too painful. The Washington Post today has the result of a investigation into "diversion" of funds by non-profits. As I understand it, non-profits are supposed to report if more than $250,000 of funds (or 5% of assets/receipts) meant for their causes has been "diverted" -- i.e. stolen, usually by a trusted employee. About 1000 non-profits have made such reports since the reporting requirement began in 2008, for a total of hundreds of millions of dollars.
It's really sad that there are so many people out there -- specifically, people who have been entrusted with paid jobs in these non-profits -- who are routinely engaging in this kind of theft.
