Verified Fundraisers to Help Victims and Heroes of Twin Falls Shooting

It’s sad that some people will take a tragedy and try to use it for personal gain, and we’ve seen that firsthand here in Southern Idaho with the mass shooting at In-N-Out in Twin Falls.

While most of us were trying to cope with the tragedy and sort through the various posts and articles about the incident for verified information, others were creating fundraisers to steal money from people who are mourning or looking for a way to help.

Fundraisers Announced to Help Victims and Families of Twin Falls Shooting

There are a variety of online fundraising platforms where people can donate money to help others who may be struggling. After the shooting in Twin Falls, GoFundMe was a popular site to find causes and families to donate to, but in the background, GoFundMe was trying to sort through them all to determine which ones were legitimate and which ones were nefariously opportunistic.

They have already pulled fundraisers that they deemed to be fake and they have verified others so that donors can help true causes. Those fundraisers include accounts for the families of victims who passed away, for family members who now need to travel to attend funerals, for the hero who shot back, and for business employees who have been traumatized by the event.
