Nikki Smith set up a GoFundMe.com page to raise money to take her two daughters, 10 and 12, to Disney World. Her story was shared over 18,000 on Facebook, however, she only raised $18 (yep...eighteen bucks!) and got MAJOR BACKLASH!!!!
“The press have made me out to be an awful person,” said Smith, who eventually deleted her page after her story made headlines.
Smith has since re-launched the GoFundMe page, which has raised about $650.
"I’m traumatized by the abuse and negativity I have received and only put this back up because a lot of people said I should,” Smith explains. “Online trolls are evil, I haven’t hurt anyone and I was only trying to fulfill my children’s dreams.”
