Go Fund me or Go **** off?

Yes, we did. The only other contribution I have made was towards the cost of surgery for a stray dog.

You hear of so many cheats I wouldn’t contribute unless I knew them personally.

I think many of us contributed to that one GG3

I will only give if it’s someone I know that is raising money for charity.

I have made an exception for a GN member.

It is a business and takes a percentage from each donation. I can see where it can be a useful tool for specific fundraising and anyone can decide whether a cause is worthy or not.

I will only fund what I feel are very deserving people.

I have occasionally contributed, e.g. for an electric wheelchair for a disabled child, but I’m certainly very selective.

There was someone in the News yesterday who gambled on not taking out travel insurance despite his age and health issues, and is now stuck in a Turkish hospital having racked up a medical bill of £40,000. His daughter has set up a Go Fund Me. Why should other people pay for his foolhardiness? I won't be contributing.
