British supermodel and actress Naomi Campbell has been banned from being a trustee of her nonprofit, Fashion for Relief after authorities found the organization had spent only a small fraction of its budget on actual charity work.
Campbell, 54, started Fashion for Relief in 2005 to support “many important humanitarian causes,” such as providing relief for natural disasters, and providing food, shelter, and medical care for children around the world, according to the nonprofit’s website. Campbell, who was declared as one of just six true supermodels from her generation, even wrote in a statement that her honorary grandfather Nelson Mandela was the “inspiration” to launch the organization.
