Lambda Legal, a nonprofit supporting LGBTQ+ rights, exceeded fundraising goal by $105M

Lambda Legal CEO Kevin Jennings announced the results on Thursday, saying the group exceeded its original fundraising goal by $105 million.
“I think this is a statement by the LGBTQ+ community that we will not go back,” said Lambda Legal CEO Kevin Jennings in an interview.
The nonprofit has won court cases that ended bans on gay marriage in 2015 and that abolished laws that criminalized sex between gay adults in 2003. It launched the fundraising campaign quietly in 2022 in response to a wave of bills in state legislatures that targeted LGBTQ+ rights.

That claims ~$420k compensation with ~$25k "other." If he is playing any substantial role in bringing in $100M+ funds for a good cause, I'd say this person's compensation isn't something I'm going to get worked up about. For VHCOL areas this is middle class household income (looks like they're based in NY NY, so...VHCOL).
Nah that’s fair comp honestly
There is nowhere in america that $420k is "middle class"
Even in the highest COL states like New York and California, middle class tops out under $200k
