Kat parts ways with fav charity (Edit:which make IF members go insane)

Katrina Kaif's mother Susanna Turcotte's collaboration with the orphanage Claretian Mercy Home in Madurai, which began about 18 months ago, stands dissolved.

Susanna, who was ably supported by Katrina in the endeavour, has parted ways with the institution and the end of the alliance came a few months ago. Buzz is, the parting was not on an amicable one and a misunderstanding seems to have overrun the good intentions.

While Claretian Mercy Home felt that Katrina and her mother were responsible for sensitive information about their orphanage being leaked to the press, friends of the actress say that the officials at the orphanage felt that Susanna was taking too much personal credit and limelight for the work.

A source from the orphanage (name withheld on request) said, "We did not like the fact that pictures and information about our children, which needs to be protected at all costs, was being splashed in the media, especially on the Internet. We had shared that information with Susanna."

TOI has it that Susanna has bought a piece of land near the premise of the home, with the plan to start a school for the local children and a dispensary for pregnant women.

Confirming this, a source close to Susanna said, "Katrina and Susanna were a bit surprised when the orphanage expressed their displeasure over media coverage because Susanna had earlier organised a media tour with their consent."

Meanwhile, Susanna sent us a text, "Our association with Claretian Mercy Home was always a time and goal oriented one. We had a set of things to accomplish for them, including making much required renovations and supplies and to improve the hygiene standard of the nursery as well as to set up a preschool for the toddlers and young children at home. As we accomplished those goals, we turned our attention to working in nearby rural villages to focus on improving the status of women as well as providing educational opportunities for disadvantaged children. We are now building an integrated rural development centre to further these goals."
