What Nonprofit CEOs Earn

Hi HN,

After building a greppable dataset form 990 filings (~8.8M filings over 12 years), I've gotten more questions about how much leaders within nonprofits get paid. It turns out that the sector is extremely diverse: hospitals, insurance, grantmaking foundations, and hobby groups. The highest median top pay go to medical professionals rather than CEOs. There were also some interesting patterns across religious affiliation and geographic location of headquarters.

If there’s another way you’d like to see the data sliced, let me know and I’ll see what I can pull.
