Grace Tame Finds Out as Her Foundation Announces Closure

The finding out phase of former Australian of the Year Grace Tame‘s FAFO exploits have reached a crescendo.

A charity established by Grace Tame has announced it will close, just weeks after she received widespread backlash for chanting “globalise the intifada”.

The former Australian of the Year announced she would not accept paid speaking engagements for the rest of the year following what she described as a “national smear campaign”.

The controversy prompted several politicians and Jewish leaders to call for Tame to be stripped of her Australian of the Year title.

In a statement shared on social media, The Grace Tame Foundation said it had reached a “crossroads”.

“Like many small advocacy organisations, sustaining long-term funding for this work has become increasingly challenging,” the statement said.

“After careful consideration, the Board has made the decision to close the foundation, with the process to be finalised in the coming weeks.

Sources told The Daily Telegraph her inflammatory comments at the anti-Herzog rally led to some “internal fallout” within the charity.

Tame also faced fierce criticism from Jewish groups after claiming testimony of rape perpetrated by Hamas following October 7 was “debunked”.

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer person.

Incidentally, the abbreviation for the Grace Tame Foundation is GTF. The acronym now seems unintentionally perfect.

Got The F*** Out.

Poetic, really.
