...donations," says Goodwill's marketing chief, Dave Barringer. Nonprofits have to report where their money goes. Private companies don't. And potential donors who balk at USAgain's for-profit status may be even less pleased to know that the firm is run by Scandinavians associated with a secular cult whose leaders are on trial in Denmark for tax fraud and embezzlement. No USAgain executives have been accused of any wrongdoing, and Wallander says of the cult, "That has nothing to do with how I run this business."
