The Completionist breaks silence on $600k “charity scam” allegations

Jirard Khalil, better known as The Completionist, has finally broken his silence regarding the serious allegations leveled against his charity, The Open Hand Foundation.

Previously, prominent YouTubers like Karl Jobst and SomeOrdinaryGamers had accused the foundation of withholding over $600,000 in donations intended for dementia research.

These allegations, which have been a subject of heated debate and scrutiny, suggested that the funds raised were never disbursed to any charitable organizations, despite claims to the contrary.

In a detailed video response, The Completionist addresses these accusations head-on, aiming to clarify the situation and provide his side of the story.

Initial Response to Allegations

In his video, The Completionist emphatically denies any criminal or financial fraud within the foundation.

“At no point in the foundation’s history was there any criminal or financial fraud,” he asserts, addressing the allegations directly.

He explains the delay in his response, stating, “When there is allegation after allegation being made, it takes a long time to gather the evidence and facts to refute claims.” This statement reflects his stance on the need for a careful and thorough approach in handling such serious accusations.

He also acknowledges the concerns raised by his silence, saying, “A lot of folks have been saying that if I didn’t do anything wrong, that I should have said something sooner.”
