#12 Non-Profit Organizations
January 21, 2008 by clander
It is a known fact that white people make up 95% of non-profit organizations. They can’t get enough of them.
They like working there for a number of reasons, the most important of which is that it gives them a sense of self importance. This is important so that they can tell their friends and parents that they are “helping” society, and not just working to make money.
But the sweet side of non profits is that you are paid a competitive salary for your field. So you can be working at a non-profit and still make six figures, and you don’t have accountability or pressure. Again, like most things with white people – you can’t lose!

Funny. I used to work for a non-profit agency and the pay was terrible. Now I work at a for-profit agency in the same field in the same geographic location and I’m paid 50% more than when I worked at the non-profit agency.

Brittney on July 14, 2010 at 11:38 am, ha ha ha ha you are being facetious right? You do know that this list is in good humour yeah?
Hmmmm…… maybe you don’t.
Oh well.
Cheer up! I’m white and I think all this stuff is hilarious! It doesn’t need to apply to you personally, we all know people who are like that in some way. It’s called self-deprecation. You will be boring and self-important if you don’t learn to appreciate it!
What the fuck, you know that not all “whities” are not the same, right? I don’t like half the shit on this list. I find all this is very racist!
A white person whose family did not come from or had deep family heritage in Latin America. Some whites whose family heritage existed in Latin America can be considered Hispanic. If I remember, Monica Lewinsky’s father was Central American Jew; I think it was El Salvador.
I would be considered a non-hispanic or Non-Latino Asian because my family did not have a history in Latin America, at least blood relatives, but there are plenty of Asians who could be considered Hispanic, especially those whose family go generations back into Latin America, often brought over for hard labor.
I love this. You hit it right on the head. The best is when a government agency that funds your program, such as mine, does it and expects me to make make miracles.
Having said that, I know the type that Lander is talking about and have quite a few colleagues like that. Either their parents have money or they are married to someone who has money, which is why they can live in the neighborhoods that they live in with that low of a salary.
