Global Fund Uncovers Additional $20M in Mismanaged Funds

As a result of 12 new probes, the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has uncovered an additional $20 million of financial mismanagement, The Washington Post reports.

Two new cases in Nigeria and India could lead to criminal charges. Fraud and misspending have plagued the organization; as a result, the fund has investigated its own losses in grant money.

Previous probes discovered about $53 million in losses. The fund says it has recovered $19 million in misspent or undocumented money so far.

The Friends of AIDS Foundation is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for HIV positive individuals and empowering people to make healthy choices to prevent the spread of the HIV virus. To learn more about The Friends of AIDS Foundation, please visit: http://www.friendsofaids.org.
