Summary A Charlotte Observer analysis of the Charlotte-area United Way raises questions about the agency's efficiency claims, found it had a higher overhead rate than most large charities and most large United Ways, and its leader was one of the five highest-paid United Way CEOs in the nation. Charlotte's United Way ranks 24th in size. The group also made questionable accounting changes to improve the appearance of its overhead rate."
