GoFundMe campaigns supporting Christine Blasey Ford top $700K
GoFundMe campaigns supporting Christine Blasey Ford, a college professor who accuses Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault while they were in high school, have raised more than $700,000 on her behalf.
The two GoFundMe campaigns associated with Ford's name, "Help Christine Blasey Ford" and "Cover Dr. Blasey's security costs," were set up earlier this month to help the Palo Alto professor as she prepared to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
"We are working directly with all campaign organizers and guarantee the funds raised will be transferred directly to the Ford family," a spokeswoman for GoFundMe, Katherine Cichy, told ABC News.
"To be very clear, we have designated the Ford Family as the beneficiary of these funds. We cannot take the money out or otherwise direct the funds," Cichy added.
