Financial Operation
Mr. Graham personally accepts no honoraria or “love offerings” for his work. Any contributions sent to him go to BGEA. His salary—determined by a board of directors composed primarily of clergy and business laypersons—is paid by the Association, as are the salaries of all staff members.
Each crusade is locally incorporated and the raising and disbursement of funds is the responsibility of the local Executive Committee. While most decisions are in the hands of this panel of leading clergy, it is BGEA’s policy that no funds go to Mr. Graham personally and that there be a full public audit of the accounts. An Annual Report of BGEA and related ministries is published each year. The Association is a charter member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA).
