The fund received its first donations today! There is currently $35.00 in the fund. I did not realize that PayPal would take a percentage out of each donation - I have only ever paid with PayPal, never received funds. I will pay the fees myself so that the full donation amount that anyone makes will go into the fund. Thanks to those that donated today!

This is a wonderful act of kindness!
ReplyDeletePayPal info: anytime someone pays you through PayPal with funds that are not actually sitting in their PayPal (they call it PayPal funded), they take 2.9% of the transaction + $.03 each. This includes anyone using a credit/debit/bank account that is linked to their PayPal. When you transfer this money to the person to be assisted, it will not incur a fee b/c it is sitting in PayPal.
