He does do things with other organisations for free. But his time is limited. There is a limit to how much you can expect one person to do for free.
If it's ok for a tv or newspaper company to be paid to advertise a charity

If his time is limited, why is his accountant invoicing them for 4800 a month?
What does he do there on a regular monthly basis to yield monthly cheques?
If one off appearance and payment I'd be more ok with it but it's a systematic payment that can't be explained.
that doesn't back up your claim
19. Community service ads
Most major newspapers will run community service ads for community groups as "fillers" which are exactly that - they fill space where the advertising doesn't quite fill the allotted space or leaves an unusual shaped hole. The competition for space in major media is quite fierce and rarely do they feature ads that plug a particular event - rather it is the group itself. But if you do ads that point to your website and sitting on the home page is a big reminder of your event, it can't hurt. Most newspapers require the completed, designed ads and they tend to fill space in the back pages of the papers but a free ad is a free ad and every little bit helps.
21. Community Service Announcements on TV
Television networks also provide free airtime for Community Service Announcements but again it can be tough going to try and secure one so you should check before you spend time and money having an ad shot. These can be simple messages read out by TV presenters, or can involve a simple promotional video. Check with the network to find out to whom you should send your announcement and the format that they prefer.Even if your Community Service Announcement is broadcast at odd hours of the night and day and doesn't quite have the ratings of the Oscars night, there will still be people who spot it. Even if they don't turn up at least they know who you are and what you do. Community TV stations are also a good option - they may even shoot the ad for you if you ask them nicely.
It's not a 100% rule, some charities do it and some don't. And if some do pay their ambassadors they won't admit it, because its a bad look.

Fact is though, charities are essentially businesses and they work under the same concepts of competition in the market that other businesses do. Paying for that celebrity endorsement is sometimes far more effective. And if you can get 5-10 hours of the week from Greg Inglis that he might have spent in a competing indigenous charity, then you bring the incentives to the table. You are naive if you believe this doesn't happen.
I would only have a problem with this if GI was personally calling it charity work. As I see it, it's ambassador work as part of his TPA that just happens to be for a charity

Source what.

Bingo. Sums up what I'm trying to say perfectly.Health organization's do actually employ people.
Inglis goes to communities and encourages people to use health services and easily earns his money so any criticism for this is way off the mark. If ams is using money from medicare funds for this that's on them.

Please show me one picture of Inglis making an appearance for the AMS encouraging people to use their medical services. He doesn't even feature anywhere on their website FFS! You would think their $90k ambassador would feature prominently in promotional material and such for the coin they are paying him....
I would argue he does absolutely nothing for them on a weekly or monthly basis. The absolute only mention I have seen of his work for them is an article from last year talking up his "charity" work. He apparently features on a pre-recorded video that plays in the waiting room of an AMS clinic in redfern, and on a few pamphlets and flyers they give out. It claims he visits the clinic from time to time as well... although funnily enough no photos of that either.
THE Aboriginal Medical Service says rugby league star Greg Inglis's work will continue amid an investigation into his $50,000 a year job with the charity.
