Compassion International and Christian Artists Who Get Money From Them

I'm sure many of you have been to Christian music festivals that are sponsored by Compassion International or World Vision or been to a Christian concert where there was a pitch for one of these organizations. Shaun Groves who works with Compassion was recently asked this question:

I have a friend who is totally against everything that Compassion and World Vision do. Why? Because she’s convinced that music artists get “kickbacks” for every child they manage to get sponsored. Is this true? Can you clear this up to put her mind at ease?

I think he gave a really good answer.

And yes it is true, they do get kickbacks (for the most part I think).
