"We looked at a ton of different websites and the thing we kept on running into was really high fees. We were really intent that all the money donated should be going to these organizations, as much as possible. There was talking about us covering the fees, but pretty soon …

“Can I give a quick shout out to the Givebutter team? Because of those [team fundraisers]. There were a lot of them and it seemed really overwhelming to me. When I chat-boxed you guys, within a minute I had help and you guys set it up on your end which …
