DeepmanaYeah, I can't expect that there would be a goal. Doesn't make sense.
BTW, this is the direct donation link; it's not present in the FAQ at the moment.

It IS present in the FAQ. Just click the I'mRaising pic.
Oh, okay, that's my bad then. I like seeing the links.

So even giving just 5 bucks to the guy(the cost of your lunch) isn't going to help? Why the hell not? At least I know where my money is going, and that's DIRECTLY to support Kyle's family. 5$ is nothing, and if everyone on stream could chuck 5$ that's great.
Not to mention this is a community, which means community members help out each other. When we hear someone's hurting in this community, of course we're going to try to help him!
I'm not "spending" my money, I'm helping someone in the TF2 community.

You are talking out of your ass. If people didn't care, they wouldn't donate. They don't pretend to help, they do send hard money which will help.
It makes no sense to say that you are only allowed to donate to charitable events that you are somehow involved with (such as helping someone in the tf2 community) if you already donate money to other charities. Nobody here is sending money to ghos7 (I ssume) that he would otherwise spend on some other charity. Nobody is losing.

I'd like to mention that Lange's stream has made more money than the entire NARevival for CSGO, he's been streaming for just under an hour and a half.
Their stream was 24 hours...
The TF2 community is awesome.

Someone should make a thread on Reddit. I don't think I could do it justice - I didn't know Ghos7 at all, and it would be wrong of me to pretend that I did. I'll be watching, and perhaps donating too! (Again, I'm young, so no money to give, but I'm publicizing this as much as possible.) I hope the Reddit TF2 Community will respond as kindly and thoughtfully as you here have today.

does this even need to be said? what does this contribute to the cause? unless this is a carefully constructed plan to completely ostracize yourself from the community.
i never understand why people take this kind of stuff so personally, or feel the need to make long-winded retorts to others efforts. if you don't want to contribute, don't contribute.

Snowy-Dumb opinions-
I had a long post written out refuting everything you said, but I decided it'd be better to just tell you you're dumb.
You're dumb.
With that out of my system. I'm Glad to see Ghost's family will be getting some support so they don't lose everything from a split second accident. It's great that people are willing to rally and support someone else for no benefit of their own.
