Do the people who run cookie cupboards get paid?

random, but was talking with my co-leader and we were just wondering if the people that run the cookie cupboards out of their house get paid or if they're just crazy and doing it out of the kindness of their hearts. like we have one that's just ran by some random elderly guy that's not associated with any troop, it just seems like such a weird thing to do for someone like that, but i also know that GS pretty much never pays people unless they absolutely have to (or maybe that's just my council). Anywho, it got me wondering and i figured you all would know.
