$6000 raised so far (or however much so far)and counting all going to Don

Happy they came over to @GiveSendGo to continue fundraising. Best part of GiveSendGo is you can send prayers as well! givesendgo.com/helpdonretire
Long read but stay with me, its the best narrative so far for @UsePaid.
Erin Howell started a GoFundMe Raiser after seeing this elderly man on my doorcamera, hauling her lost airline suitcases up a steep flight of stairs.
His name is Don Johnson, an 81 year old man who has been an independent contractor returning luggage for airline. It was the only job that would hire him.
His wife Josephine, married to him for 57 years, has an aggressive cancer, and the bills, the prescriptions and the ordinary cost of living had swallowed everything.
She took it upon herself to help him and setup a fundraiser with a goal of $150,000, they ended up raising $700k.
GoFundMe has just took the fundraiser down and the entire $700k has been refunded. Devastating news.
This is one of the best usecases for @UsePaid ,right now the fundraiser is going through @GiveSendGo, so i will be sending the fees to the ceo @jacobawells, he has x money setup and is active on twitter.
I figured this is the best way to do it, since manually donating will not be optimal plus we can also spread the good @UsePaid can do and change the outlook on Web3.
