GoFundMe info for the burned down Louisiana Churches.

X Post from AA group

::I get no benefits, nor am I involved with any of these churches or the fund raiser::

I am however deeply offended by (accused)racists burning down churches.

The rebuild of Notre Dame will be well funded.

In the past month, three historically black churches in Louisiana were destroyed by a racist arsonist. He has been charged with hate crimes, but these churches need your help. Please join me in donating https://t.co/gj1BcNsGpu

10. Holy Cow!

In the past hour, we have raised $50,000 to help rebuild three historically black churches in Louisiana destroyed by a racist arsonist.

He has been arrested, but these churches need your help to rebuild!
