Lopsided Pittsburgh Region Nonprofit Wages Raising Questions

More women than men populate the executive offices at Pittsburgh regional nonprofits, but their salaries continue to lag those of their male counterparts by a significant margin. Though 64 percent of executive directors at nonprofits in southwestern Pennsylvania are female, their average pay was $101,475, or 75 percent of the average $135,170 that male executives were paid, according to a new survey conducted by the Bayer Center for Nonprofit Management at Robert Morris University and accounting firm Horovitz, Rudoy & Roteman.
