Legit GoFundMe campaigns

I'm wondering who on here has organized one or had to have one for their own benefit.

We know from many threads here that GFM grifts are a dime a dozen - maybe even a dime a hundred.

But in the last few years I've either organized or been a "team captain" for three different friends that needed medical care (in one case, a liver transplant).

It just makes me sad that in a country that's supposed to have the world's best health care, even a fairly stable person with a decent job and/or savings has to go out and basically beg for help for things insurance doesn't or won't cover.....if they're even lucky enough to HAVE insurance.

I have a feeling that most Dataloungers, myself included, are misanthropes in real life and aren’t often the “team captains” of anything except maybe passing the bar around to buy a cyanide pill for Ginny in Billing.

r1 You may be right, but I was curious anyway.
