The nation's largest workplace charity drive -- the Combined Federal Campaign conducted in government offices -- has tossed out a key rule, and that has prompted protests and appeals to members of Congress from nonprofit groups.
The controversy involves a decision by the Office of Personnel Management, which administers the charity drive, to drop a requirement that charities spend no more than 25 percent of their revenue on fundraising and other overhead expenses. Charities that exceeded the cap were required to give the OPM a reason and come up with a plan to reduce overhead to stay in the campaign."
