I hadn't.  Did you read the comments?  Eye-opening to say the least.  There are a dozen executive vice-presidents all making six-figure salaries with the executive director making over $200K.  In 2008 the founder made $400K from WWP.  According to Charity Navigator, they give barely more than half the money to the program and use 45% of all monies received for their salaries and expenses.

Quite a few negative comments with specifics about WWP.

Apparently they prefer to steal from unarmed people.....wise choice.

I did a little research on WWP prior to writing my post.

Sad.

Fortunately there are a lot of other good projects one can support.
