Are they actively soliciting funds through social media, adverts in the paper, interviews on the telly? If not then I would suggest that nobody is donating to their fund, and why would they be? Everyone knows that this is a live police investigation costing upwards of £12 million. The idea that the McCanns would reject the “perfect scapegoat” in order to start up a renewed appeal for funds in the future which would have to be spent on actually searching (for a daughter you believe they know is dead anyway) is absurd in the extreme and I think you know it really.
Last time I looked there was still a donate function on their web page.
It also states there:
The full objects of the Fund are:To secure the safe return to her family of Madeleine McCann who was abducted in Praia da Luz, Portugal on Thursday 3rd May 2007;
To procure that Madeleine's abduction is thoroughly investigated and that her abductors, as well as those who played or play any part in assisting them, are identified and brought to justice; and
To provide support, including financial assistance, to Madeleine's family.
If the above objects are fulfilled then the objects of the Foundation shall be to pursue such purposes in similar cases arising in the United Kingdom, Portugal or elsewhere.
................
3) To provide support, including financial assistance, to Madeleine's family.
Seems a bit vague to me, I mean if they needed new trainers or the shed roof needs re-felting they could just use the fund money by the sounds of it.
