Rte first, charities are being uncovered wait until the HSE and NGOs are found out
It was quite the virtue signal for a few years running that people would boast about how they wouldn’t give to charities but that they gifted the Peter McVerry trust as ‘well , how could you not?’
I’m not sure there’s any evidence of misappropriation? More just a case of them getting too big?
looks like there may well be
Francis Doherty, who took over as head of the trust this June, tendered his resignation on Wednesday, stating the charity’s board had made his position “untenable”.
In a resignation letter, seen by The Irish Times, Mr Doherty said he had identified a “substantial amount of concerning information” about practices that predated his appointment.
These included the “potential mismanagement of donor funds”, the transfer of “restricted funds from the charity to a private business”, as well as issues around “huge” expenditure on a homeless hostel in Co Kildare run by the trust.
Mr Doherty claimed a “gagging order” had been put on him discussing the trust’s financial situation with State funders or regulators without the sign-off of the board, which he said was an “unreasonable restriction”.
During a late September meeting, he claimed he was told by the board only “the minimum amount of information” should be shared with regulators.
The correspondence revealed the charity owes €6.9 million to trade creditors, with some suppliers threatening to stop providing services.
The letter claimed the board had “assumed control” of decisions about which creditors should be paid and when
Sounds ominous. There was none of that info in the earlier reports.
have you seen the creditors? they were warehousing PAYE payments during COVID - why? their income was consistant if not increasing - thats a criminal act in itself
Its nearly at the stage now where you’d have doubts about every National charity. Better focus on the local ones where you can see the impact of donation money. Or just give it to your local hospice.
Been saying it for years. All charity begins at home
Waste of money giving money to the big charities. I only donate to 2 charities, St Francis Hospice in Raheny and a small Autism charity called Snowflakes that is in the Swords area. At least I can see where the money the goes there and what they do. The bigger ones its just a big black hole.
Prescient
Thats the only way i feel to donate. If you know the people running it or using the service. I dont trust the big guys, very evident on this thread. Red flag for me is when you see professional chuggers looking for subscriptions
These 2 paragraphs raise a fair few questions
It has since sold a large property used for homeless accommodation in Santry, north Dublin, for €1 million, with plans to bring in a further €5.87 million by selling more properties.
The charity reported €60 million in income last year, some €43 million of which came from public funding, with the vast majority of the remainder made up from donations.
Anyone of our marathon runners raising money for charity? DM me if you are 
They’ve fucked this so badly
The lads on the other side of that deal are the definition of cute kerry hoors.
The Tour de Munster raised over €442,652.72 for this years edition, €417,772.72 going to Munster DSI branches and the balance to four other charities. The six Munster branches also hold one day cycling events to raise more funds for themselves, it was reported that the Limerick branch raised over €95k for their 3 Counties Cycle in September.
If anyone on here contributed to any of these events, thank you. These are massive amounts but all badly needed.
I’ll have to go back in 2024
