> Having interned/worked in three INGOs (Save the Children, World Concern and UNICEF) for a total of ~2 years, and having a family member who have worked in a well-known French NGO (ACF International)for 3+ years, I have to agree with this assessment.
Those bear no relationship to the sort of charity Lehrer would establish with an estate generating hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
But it does relate to Lehrer's comment that "They're mostly rip-offs." Who knows the scope of his comment, but the anecdotes shared regarding StC WC and UNICEF seem germane to me, given the ambiguity.
