With most charity collectors getting paid a hefty "wage", where is the money really going? Which charities actually give all the money to the people they are collecting for?

Hubby and I support Angel Flight & RFDS as we have friends who live in isolated areas. We also support Australian Lutheran World Service, the AGL Rescue Helicopter (which used to be the Energex Rescue Helicopter), Scripture Union Chaplaincy Fund and Australian Working Dog Rescue (as I am one of their foster carers). We allocate a certain amount from out household budget each year for donations and apart from these specific charities also give a few dollars here and there to Breast Cancer Research, Surf Lifesavers, our local Bush Fire Brigade to name a few.
