[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 760303, member: 18708"] UW are crooks, I'm sure you have heard. It doesn't suprise me UPS and UW team up. Besides, I'd rather donate my time and skill than my money, personally. That is what giving is about. United Way Board Chairman Resigns Amid Investigation of Former CEO's Pay Graham Denton, the chairman of the board of the United Way in Charlotte, N.C., has stepped down after a local news investigation revealed a $2-million retirement package paid to the charity’s former chief executive, Gloria Pace King, reports WCNC. Mr. Denton was a member of the executive committee that approved Ms. King’s multimillion-dollar retirement package. Since a board meeting last week, at least three United Way board members have resigned, including Anne Caulkins, publisher of The Charlotte Observer. Carlos Evans, Wachovia’s Executive Vice President, will take over as chairman. A story in The Charlotte Observer reported earlier this week that local United Way board members are concerned that the retirement package they approved for Ms. King might be a violation of Internal Revenue Service rules that regulate compensation for charity leaders.
