[sdiy] Ray Wilson Help

[Tom Bugs]

GoFundMe are pretty hands-off about it:
"Most donations on GoFundMe are personal gifts between family & friends 
and not usually tax deductible. Only donations made to a 'Certified 
Charity <http://www.gofundme.com/charity-donations>' campaign may be 
eligible for tax deductions. We recommend you consult with a tax 
professional about your specific situation"
I don't see that as different from Personal Payment via Paypal 
really...?!...
