Cash invoice format for non-profit organizations

side it team found more than 100 local nonprofit executives are paid at least a half million dollar a year including some who get nearly all their revenue from taxpayers Chief investigative reporter Craig chetam takes a look at how many nonprofit Executives can count on Six Figure bonuses year after [Music] year as the longtime CEO of Cincinnati based Talbert House Neil tillow has managed the dramatic growth of this non profit organization that's dedicated to strengthening families and helping recovering addicts get treatment housing and employment 95% of its funding for programs about $50 million a year comes directly from government agencies spending your tax dollars including 19.3 million just from Hamilton County every organization in the world has administrative costs ours are 8 and a half% we're proud of that we're efficient but Hamilton County Auditor Dusty rhs whose job is to act as a watchdog Over All County funds says Talbert House Is Not efficient in the way it pays its CEO Neil tillow the fact that they've got so much taxpayer money funding that operation I think it should be more open to scrutiny than it has been the IT team scrutinized the compensation of tillow and hundreds of other local nonprofit Executives in Talbert House Records filed in recent years with the IRS tillow is reported to have total compensation that averaged around A5 million a year including 2014 when he received a $101,000 bonus in recognition of his 35 years as CEO in 2014 the pay uh of Neil was actually less than 1% of the operating expenses so we uh consider that a cost of doing business Talbert House board chair Kathy crane says Till's compensation package is fair but complex he has a base salary of about $300,000 an additional $175,000 a year in deferred payment is tied to incentives that can only be received after years of commitment in 2011 he was paid 1.1 million because he cashed out deferred compensation he had built over the previous decade the board institutes these types of retirement plans to keep uh Mr tillow in his position as many organizations do crane says till pay and benefits are based on an outside consultant's thorough review of what CEOs receive at comparable nonprofits I think it's it's excessive I don't think there's any question about that rad says the fact that Talbert House is so dependent on tax money means it should be even more transparent in how it determines the pay for its CEO do you believe that should play a factor in how people perceive your compensation well and I'll answer that Craig because the board Bo who are all taxpayers and take this very seriously crane did not answer that question she says Talbert House determines Till's bonus pay based on weighted categories including improving services and quality increasing fundraising and expanding communication plans but we asked for specific language and defined targets which Talbert House was unwilling to provide we don't feel that we need to another nonprofit CEO Judy peer of Cincinnati based knowledge works a provider of Education Services and research did provide more detailed descriptions of how she earns bonus money including specific percentage increases required in employee satisfaction surveys and financial targets for instance uh we have a net spending uh amount that we'll set a specific Target to and if you hit it then you get that percentage of the of the bonus payout peer's nonprofit has half the expenses of Talbert House but she was paid more than tillow earning $638,000 in 2014 nearly triple the national median pay for executives running similar size public foundations like tillow peer's board determined her pay was reasonable after an outside consultant reviewed compensation at similar organizations under the IRS rules you don't I'm not going to set my own salary the Board needs to be very judicious in how they spend the money knowledge Works receives $5 million a year from taxpayers which is a third of its Revenue recently peper took a 20% pay cut to more accurately reflect the size and scope of her restructured organization just like any for-profit business you want to hire the best and the brightest and you want them to feel like they're being compensated fairly in the final analysis the market will determine in many cases what the compensation should be executive recruiter Tom Gilman who declined to discuss what we found at specific nonprofits told me the salaries in the tri-state are competitive but generally not considered excessive I think for the most part the CEOs that we know and that we have helped attract to those organizations are making less than they would make in the private [Music] sector until recently knowledge Works had a dozen Executives earning more than $200,000 a year Talbert House had two Judy peer says knowledge Works has cut 40% of its executive pay during its recent restructuring Craig cheum n on your side
