"For many foundations, the bylaws require that staff compensation recommended to the Board of Trustees is competitive, sensible and has a reasonable relationship to compensation provided by other foundations of similar size. One reliable resource for the sector in meeting this requirement is the Grantmaker Salary and Benefits Survey."

VP/Administration, John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
"It is important for foundations to support each other and this is one of the ways in which we can do so. Having this report is important to the field as it gives validity to what we do and creates a baseline for comparison."
