GREED
of Jacqueline Marohanye, principal of Ithuteng Trust in
Klipspruit, Soweto
The
Institute congratulates Carte Blanche on its exposé of 'alleged'
GREED at the hands of Jacqueline Maarohanye, principal of Ithuteng
Trust in Klipspruit, Soweto in their programme on M-Net Sunday 19
November 2006.
Honest fundraisers are working to generate support and respect for
this country, but not only has she exploited the donors; she has
exploited the very children she was entrusted to care for and that
is despicable.
The acts committed by Mama Jackie will have destroyed donor
confidence in South Africa. She has done irreparable harm to
fundraising. It is hard enough to get foreign donors to invest in
South African projects, because of the perceived climate of fraud
and corruption, and now this high profile figure has shown the rest
of the world that their fears are correct. The people are corrupt!
We hope that we can restore the confidence of both local and foreign
donors in fundraisers. Those who are members of SAIF adhere to a
strict Code of Ethics and you can check their membership by
contacting the office of the Institute on tel: 011 794 5224.
