Ashley Biden's Charity Failed To Disclose $500,000 in Donations to IRS, Complaint Alleges
‘What other contributions is she hiding?’ watchdog asks

Ashley Biden's charity has a $500,000 discrepancy in its books, a watchdog alleged in a complaint filed with the IRS on Monday.
During the height of her father’s presidency in 2023, Ashley Biden launched a walk-in trauma recovery center in Philadelphia equipped with infrared saunas to help women overcome mental health challenges. Known as the Women’s Wellness Spa(ce), the former first daughter’s charity supposedly got off the ground with at least $500,000 in seed funding in 2023. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Archewell Foundation and the Silicon Valley Community Foundation each reported in their tax forms granting $250,000 to Ashley Biden’s charitable venture in 2023, figures that should have been reflected in the Women’s Wellness Spa(ce)’s Form 990 tax filing.
But the Women’s Wellness Spa(ce) told a much different story to the IRS, reporting in its 2023 tax filing that it received just $170,296 from all sources that year, and that it didn’t receive any contributions from a single source greater than $5,000, seemingly contradicting the financial reporting of its two largest benefactors. Ashley Biden signed the document as the charity’s president under penalty of perjury.
To Paul Kamenar, an attorney with the National Legal and Policy Center watchdog group, the documents show that Ashley Biden’s charity clearly violated IRS rules by failing to disclose $500,000 in contributions it received in 2023. Kamenar filed a complaint on behalf of the watchdog group on Monday demanding the IRS audit the Women’s Wellness Spa(ce) to discover if it failed to report any other grants in 2023 and possibly impose sanctions upon the former first daughter for violating the agency’s financial disclosure rules.
