TF2's Terrible Fundraisers

  • GoFundMe is a platform where anyone can ask for money for any reason. This would typically be used by people in genuine need who are in a rough spot, but the fact that there's practically no quality control means that random children can use it to ask for TF2 items. This is a collection of terrible TF2 themed GoFundMe campaigns, most of which are likely written by small children who have no means of making money themselves. Or something like that.
    Please don't go onto GoFundMe and make something like this. I did it for your entertainment so you don't have to.

    9:17 THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL GOFUNDME FOR THE EVENT. TF2 LAN has an official Crowdfunding Campaign where you can donate directly to the event from the website. Please be careful about recommending something like this. The GoFundMe seems like one guy is trying to get $2000 to potentially attend the event, which they might not even do; this is not a host for the event.

      You're right, this isn't the official TF2 LAN Campaign, this is someone who wants to participate IN TF2 LAN but can't afford to do so. It says at the bottom in 9:35 "All donations will be used for [...] travel and accommodation". Great Blue misinterpreted the campaign as the official donation goal.
