The U.K. Charity Commission has issued a report citing irregularities in the use of funds raised by Naomi Campbell's charity, Fashion for Relief.
Naomi Campbell is congratulated by Sarah Ferguson after the Fashion for Relief show during London Fashion Week at the BFC Tent, Natural History Museum, London. Fashion for Relief was founded by the British supermodel in 2005, with the aim of raising funds for health, education and lifting people out of poverty. The charity has been under investigation since 2021 and was dissolved in March this year.
The news of Campbell’s disqualification came the same day she was celebrating in Paris, receiving a Legion of Honor.The Charity Commission found that, between April 2016 and July 2022, only 8.5 percent of Fashion for Relief’s overall expenditure went toward charitable grants.The inquiry found that the charity had made payments totaling 290,000 British pounds to Hellmich for consultancy services, which was a breach of the charity’s constitution.
The Guardian newspaper reported that tens of thousands of pounds of charity funds were spent on “luxury hotel rooms, spa treatments, cigarettes and personal security for Campbell.” A sum of more than 344,000 pounds was recovered, and a further 98,000 pounds of charitable funds were rescued.
