H411 Attacks Fundraiser for Fire Victims

The vile, soulless  Hoboken 411 has  hit a new low- attacking the organizers of the March 2nd fundraiser for last night's fire victims as "opportunistic attention-seekers", "attention whores", "business scorpions" and "political opportunists"...  and the fundraiser itself as a "scam".

Ordinarily GA wouldn't give that unhinged miscreant the time of day.  And neither should you.

But it's not an ordinary day.

And the homeless occupants of those  9 destroyed Hoboken condo units won't see an ordinary day for a long time.

That's why they need help.  And whatever can be raised at Room 84 on March 2nd certainly won't restore their ordinary days, but it will do some good.

Simply because of Klaussen's personal animus toward Midtown Authentic business owner, Rory Chadwick, and  Joe Branco, the owner of Room 84 he's savaged their proposed March 2nd fundraiser. (Note the previous Chadwick-Branco benefit raised over $5,300 for victims of the Dec. 17 Jackson  Street fire).

So, why bother discussing this garbage at all?

Because the idiot tells readers NOT to donate to the fundraiser but instead, tells readers to give directly to the 300 Washington Condo Association.

Problem with that?

That is illegal.

A Condo Association CANNOT accept and disburse monies.  It is a not-for-profit entity, not a clearing house for charitable donations.  It can only make specific disbursements under specified conditions determined by the Internal Revenue Code.

Further, the idiot posts the NAMES and ADDRESSES of all the fire victims WITHOUT PERMISSION, making them targets for criminals who prey on the most vulnerable.

Outrageous.  

As if these poor people don't have enough problems, Klaussen's published a road map for heartless con artists to find them and exploit them in their time of weakness. 

And suggesting to mail donations to burned-out apartments?  Beyond brain-dead.

Does he also suggest UPS deliveries to cemetery plots?

To recap:  Klaussen works to discredit a legitimate fundraiser while proposing (2) alternative ways to donate: one ILLEGAL the other an INSTANT-FAIL.

So if you know anyone that reads that heap of dung, please apprise them of the truth.

Thank you.
