A letter from the founders

Monday, August 19th, 2013

 

Dine for Life has been made aware of the allegations of financial mismanagement directed at SISHA founder and chief executive Steve Morrish.

As our first priority is to our restaurants, corporate sponsors, contributing sponsors, our guests and the public, we have made the decision to withdraw our support from SISHA for the immediate future pending an independent audit of the organisation’s finances.

Dine for Life is proud to have supported SISHA last year in raising funds for their Raids & Rescues department, which helped SISHA rescue and rehabilitate victims of human trafficking, bonded labour and rape.

Dine for Life is continuing its focus on helping women and children affected by human trafficking with its Dinner 2013 event in both Perth and Melbourne and is currently reviewing potential charities who work in this specific field to become the beneficiaries of these two fantastic events.

We look forward to announcing the recipient of the Dinner 2013 shortly.

Thank you for all of your support to date. We are working incredibly hard to ensure the event is a success and most importantly that your donations are going to directly help the women and children in need.

Andjelka Matic & Natasha Di Ciano
