Nonprofit Spent Donations on Jets and Reality TV
Description
A Dallas nonprofit that stopped feeding kids over a year ago spent tens of thousands of dollars on private jets, golf memberships, and a reality show—using charity funds. The former CEO, who claimed to have founded the group, competed in a show and paid for it with nonprofit money, even investing in a toy company tied to a mentor. Bank records revealed dozens of bizarre purchases, including jewelry and medical boutique visits, all without board approval. The foundation that gave them $116K is suing to recover it, while the nonprofit’s IRS filings are three years late and the CEO still hasn’t turned over records. Experts call it a “mess” with no accountability.
