Camp Gallipoli under investigation over claims it failed to pay veterans’ charities

Veterans affairs minister, Dan Tehan, orders review into foundation’s funding and withdraws its right to use the word ‘Anzac’

A not-for-profit organisation that charges Australians up to $120 to camp out in memory of Anzac war veterans is under investigation over concerns it did not pass on money it raised to veterans’ associations.

The Camp Gallipoli Foundation received $2.5m in grants from the Department of Veterans’ Affairs to hold sleep-out events in every state on the eve of the Anzac centenary in 2015.

Fairfax media claimed the foundation’s chief executive, Chris Fox, may have personally profited from the events by charging management fees worth up to $1.5m a year through commercial companies owned by his family and an associate.

Fairfax asked the foundation and Fox to provide proof it had donated money raised to veterans’ charities but said the foundation was unwilling to do so.

The veterans’ affairs minister, Dan Tehan, said on Sunday: “I was extremely concerned to learn of the allegations made about the conduct of Camp Gallipoli and its associated companies.

“As a consequence, I have asked the department to conduct a review into the funding arrangements for Camp Gallipoli and provide advice on the charitable donations they have committed to make.”

“It would be disturbing if any company or individual tried, or gave the impression of trying, to gain a commercial advantage by the inappropriate use of the word ‘Anzac’.

“My department has now written to Camp Gallipoli advising them their permit to use the word ‘Anzac’ has been revoked.”

The foundation’s constitution states it will use the surplus from the Camp Gallipoli commemorative events to support RSL branches and Legacy Clubs and other similar charities.

But according to Fairfax the national leadership of the RSL and Legacy said they had not received any financial donations from Camp Gallipoli.

The Camp Gallipoli Foundation responded in a statement on Sunday rejecting “allegations that any moneys, especially funds provided through the Anzac centenary grants program, were used for purposes other than intended”.

All funds from the centenary grants program were subject to proper and thorough external auditing by PricewaterhouseCoopers, it said.

Last week, goods for good, a non-profit organization that is changing the future for orphans in Malawi through microenterprise, hosted its annual benefit, Gala for Good, at IAC Building. Cocktails were provided by 1800 Tequila, Boodles Gin, Brooklyn Brewery, Hangar 1 Vodka, Kraken Rum, Main Root, and Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey.

The event included a speech by Melissa Kushner, Founder and Executive Director of goods for good, about the positive impact that goods for good is already having on the orphan community in Malawi, but how there is still more that can be accomplished to build more small businesses that will create additional growth in the community. The event also included an auction where guests could provide donations and bid on Zoe Buckman’s unique artwork “Alone, I cannot do better,” a piece that was inspired by her visit to goods for good’s communities in Malawi. A generous supporter donated $20 to goods for good for each photo that was uploaded to social media with the hashtag #gifsforgood.

Although the live auction already occurred, people can still provide their support and bids on an online auction via the organization’s Charity Buzz page until April 28.
