From the go fund me page:

How non-profit fundraisers work

After the deduction of transaction fees , PayPal Giving Fund will send your donation to Whistleblower Aid on a monthly basis.*
*If, after reasonable efforts, PayPal Giving Fund cannot deliver donations to this charity, the funds may be donated to another charity per PayPal Giving Fund's Policies.
