Wow. I knew they would be slimming down the organisation, but that's just ridiculous.

I think it is a bit bigger than that. They had expenses of $1,039,201 with revenue of $887,595 for last calendar year.

Randi and Sharon are just the paid employees. There's also the Board of Directors, which includes Rick Adams and Chip Denman. It's also a membership-based organisation so there are many members across the world.

When I first went to a TAM, the JREF has two paid employees, Randi and Linda, and several volunteers. One summer they had an intern.
There's more at the Wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_...nal_Foundation See also http://search.sunbiz.org/Inquiry/Cor...undation/Page1 https://sccefile.scc.virginia.gov/Business/F186268 |
