Fundraising
What Is Charity Overhead?
Overhead refers to the percentage of a charity's expenses that go to administration and fundraising rather than programs. While some overhead is necessary to run an organization effectively, extremely high overhead ratios can indicate inefficiency or mismanagement.
The Better Business Bureau's Wise Giving Alliance recommends charities spend at least 65% of expenses on program activities. CharityWatch considers 75%+ to be efficient.
