This question is from a member of our community that wishes to remain anonymous:
Hi all! For the next few months I would like my CIC to raise funds to top up GoFundMe accounts as well as go to refugee camps but I am concerned about the legitimacy of GoFundMe accounts as I will be donating straight to personal family gofundmes in countries like Palestine, Sudan and Congo.Â
Do you have any advice for this? Has anyone done this in the past? Is this a huge red flag that could end badly? Any advice would be much appreciated!
