Naomi Campbell Banned from Charity Work After Fashion for Relief Mismanagement
Naomi Campbell admitted failures as a trustee of Fashion for Relief but denied any personal financial misconduct. The charity raised almost four point eight million pounds but awarded only ten percent to partner charities. Unauthorized expenses and use of Unicef's name contributed to its winding up and Campbell's five-year charity ban.
Naomi Campbell has admitted her shortcomings as a trustee of the Fashion for Relief charity, which she founded, but denied any personal financial misconduct.
The charity, under Campbell and her fellow trustees, was found to have engaged in significant financial mismanagement, raising nearly £4.8 million but allocating only 10% to partner charities.
Luxury expenses for Campbell were flagged in a Charity Commission inquiry.
A spokesperson for Campbell acknowledged her lack of active engagement but maintained her innocence in financial wrongdoing.
Issues included unauthorized use of Unicef's name and unapproved trustee payments, leading to a commission-led winding up of the charity, with trustees receiving bans.
