[Wikimedia-l] The world's most efficient charity?

[Jan Ainali]

Well, It might be a little hard to penetrate and realise what is what in
this huge page, but we do have our accounting public here:

If you have any specific questions, please direct them to me or
User:Prolineserver, our treasurer and Master of CiviCRM.

> grants on planned charitable outcomes, rather than having no figures, and
> having to defend the position of not knowing and finding
> reasons why we would never try to calculate it from the figures
> sitting in our reports. If it turns out that less than 70% of the
> money was being spent on the outcomes defined in our shared mission,
> this might encourage us to look rather carefully at exactly where the
> rest was going, don't you think?
