Tom Brady is having a rough time and is surrounded by controversies. A new report from the Daily Beast suggests that Brady’s charity gave over $1.6 million to his for-profit organization, TB12.
Brady’s charity has received a lot of funding in the past years, including multimillionaire YouTube personality Logan Thirtyacre who gave $200,000, and Canadian Billionaire Lino Saputo Jr.
Tom Brady, the owner of the organization, has earned over $350 million but has given a mere $200,000 in donations to his charity. The Former Patriots QB for-profit company TB12 is the biggest client of the Tom Brady foundation. Since it started, the company has given TB12 over $1.6 million.
The Tom Brady foundation is also the only non-profit company listed as an independent contractor for such treatments. “I can say that I haven’t come across this type of arrangement too often in my 19 years of nonprofit financial analysis in a watchdog role,” Laurie Styron, executive director of independent nonprofit monitor CharityWatch stated.
Styron believes that it isn’t common for the public to create a personal charity, which then pays the company for its services. “A charity’s board members have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of the charity at all times,” Styron added.
There were many views on the internet stating that Brady has created a non-profit organization to get away from paying taxes.
