CRAIN’S LIST | TOP-PAID NONPROFIT EXECUTIVES Ranked by 2019 total compensation per category: This chart includes selections from Crain’s database of compensation of the top executives at prominent Southeast Michigan nonprofits. This year’s review focused on compensation data for calendar year 2019, which is the most recent available based on nonprofit Form 990 tax filings. It includes large nonprofits and smaller organizations that in our judgment merited inclusion, such as civic and business organizations and smaller nonprofits whose CEOs earned compensation comparable with their peers at larger nonprofits. The total compensation for some executives, where noted, is net of deferred compensation reported on a prior-year 990 to give a more accurate picture of that executive’s actual compensation and a truer ranking. In the interests of transparency, some nonprofits still completing 990s provided compensation data for their top executives upon request. Salary database available: Published here are a selection of the top-paid nonprofit executives in Southeast Michigan, broken out by the type of nonprofit. An expanded version of this list with salary information for more than 150 executives is available in Excel format with a Crain’s All Access +Data subscription at crainsdetroit.com/data.
