2. I think that GD is appropriate;

however, it is also important to realize that people are going to check the validity of the request and if it seems questionable then some negative comments can be expected. If there is any dirty laundry in the background of the person receiving the funds then it will almost certainly be discussed here and possibly other sites that monitor this one for the purpose of ridicule.

You might want to double-check with the people that you are assisting to obtain their permission before posting here and explain the potential problems they might face.

If you do decide to proceed, then good luck with your fundraising drive.
