OPM Changes Charity Regs
This summer, the Office of Personnel Management issued draft rules that would change the way the government's workplace charity drive, the Combined Federal Campaign, is run. Among the proposals was a recommendation to drop the requirement that charities spend 25 percent or less of their total revenue on administrative and fund-raising expenses. Last week, the agency reported that a "significant majority" of the 415 comments it received on the proposed regulations opposed such a change. Nevertheless, the Chronicle of Philanthropy reports, OPM has decided in final regulations to ditch the requirement, saying it "caused an administrative burden on OPM staff." So you're on your own to figure out if your charity of choice is wasting money.
