An email will need to be sent to your donors explaining why you would like the funds to be paid into your bank account instead of the organisation/institution/professional as originally stated.  Please can you send a request to queries@backabuddy.co.za along with your campaign link.  We will have to allow your donors at least 2-3 days to respond confirming whether they are happy for the funds to be redirected or if they want a refund
