UK Charity Commission accuses Chabad trustees of “misconduct” over campaign that raised funds for IDF soldiers’ protective gear, warm clothing.
The UK government issued a stern “final warning” to Chabad, chastising the Jewish outreach organization for fundraising to benefit the IDF shortly after the October 7th attacks.
Trustees of Chabad Lubavitch Centers in North East London and Essex received a letter from the UK’s Charity Commission which stated that Chabad had acted “outside the charity’s purposes” and that the organization’s trustees failed to “safeguard its best interests and its reputation.”
The letter also accused Chabad’s trustees of engaging in “misconduct” and “mismanagement” for permitting the campaign.
