Description
The recent controversy over exclusion of the group Right to Play from the Vancouver Winter Olympics sheds light on a little discussed--or understood--corner of charity law. The controversy stemmed from efforts to ban Right to Play from the 2010 Games because it has a sponsorship deal with Mitsubishi Motor Sales, which ostensibly conflicted with the exclusive sponsorship rights for the event negotiated by General Motors with the Vancouver Organizing Committee. Right to Play is a registered charity that uses sport and play to promote health, building of life skills and peaceful resolution of conflict among youth in developing countries. Attending the Games provides an opportunity for Right to Play to profile its humanitarian work and introduce itself to Olympic athletes--a number of whom have, in the past, become key supporters of the group.
