Should a charity’s fundraiser get commission on donations? - events, shopping & search: "Clark also gets a hefty cut — 10 or 20 percent of the donation, depending on whether he did all or just most of the work. He made $408,767 over the last two years. In 2005-06, his income was 6 percent of the money the mission pulled in from the public.

That commission structure is unusual in fundraising. In fact, the Association of Fundraising Professionals calls it unethical."
