Read MoreAccording to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's nonprofit Archewell's 2021 tax filings, the couple spent only 52 hours working on the foundation that year, averaging one hour per week.
But there is a potential reason for this shockingly low number: according to the Daily Mail, one hour per week is the standard amount of time that nonprofits disclose for board participation and should be reported as such. According to the paper, in addition to Harry and Megan reporting only 52 hours per year, other board members of the foundation who report the same work hours are Executive Director James A. Holt, Financial Secretary Katherine St. Laurent, President Richard Genow, and Financial Secretary Andrew K. Meyer. The entire group of six is comprised of one executive director, James A. Holt; financial secretary, Kathryn St. Laurent; president, Richard Genow; and financial secretary, Andrew K. Meyer. How can this entire group of six people work only one hour per week per person and still function as a nonprofit organization? (The more we know.)
The numbers are interesting, however, and according to the report, the nonprofit allocates only $163,085 in salaries, which also seems very low. Executive Director Holt's salary was only $59,846, and his other benefits appear to have been $3,832. Based on the aforementioned rate of one hour per week, this would mean that Holt's hourly rate in 2021 would be $1,224. (The nonprofit is just one arm of Harry and Meghan's business empire, and the salary is paid to Archewell Audio, which produced Meghan's "Archetypes" podcast, and Archewell, which produced Netflix's documentary on Harry and Meghan. Productions).
The application also states that two independent contractors received more than $100,000 from Archewell that year. After collecting $13 million from "two wealthy benefactors," the foundation handed out more than $3 million in grants, one of which was rumored to be Oprah Winfrey, according to The Daily Mail. Harry himself apparently donated $3 million of the $20 million advance he got from Spare to the nonprofit, and according to OK, Archewell collected less than $5,000 from the public.
Archewell was founded in 2020, the same year Harry and Meghan retired from active membership in the royal family, as an "impact-driven global nonprofit" with the goal of "putting compassion into action, uplifting and uniting local and global, online and offline communities."
The organization was founded as.
