The Registrar of Nonprofits has submitted a request to the court for a liquidation order against the nonprofit 'Chance for a Drop of Happiness' (צ׳אנס לטיפת אושר), Channel 12 reported on Sunday. The request follows an investigation that uncovered alleged misconduct by the organization's controller, including deriving personal economic profit from the nonprofit's funds and presenting a false founding narrative. According to the findings, the registered institutions of the nonprofit were entirely fictitious, lacking any operational governance. The controller allegedly signed up multiple individuals as founders of the organization, some of whom were paid for their signatures, with the understanding that they would have no actual role in the nonprofit's management. The move by the Registrar aims to dissolve the organization and prevent further misuse of charitable funds.
