What we checked, and what remains uncertain

Minimum public-source checks passed on 2026-10-05: named identity, official presence, recent reported activity and an authorized giving route with an identifiable recipient.

Minimum public-source checks only. Registration and programme results may be organization-authored. Live registry standing, bank ownership, payment settlement, use of an individual gift and field outcomes were not independently audited. No payment made. Evidence describes its stated reporting period, not guaranteed delivery today.

Official PAIA manual p7 identifies Ladles of Love Foundation, registration IT 001206/2017 and registered Cape Town office; current giving page names the same bank beneficiary.
