In my mind, this is a reason to bump DwB/MsF to the top of the giving list -- they know their limits and what they can do cost-effectively. Someone I know had an experience with another aid agency, one of the big ones, where they saw them completely mismanaging funds because they had more money than they needed or knew what to do with and HAD to spend it to comply with terms of the grants. They put a goddamn pool in the directors' yard in Kabul, and invented all kinds of exotic perks for the key admin staff.
