Our registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, FNBUBBLES420 Org, had a highly troubling and…read moredisappointing experience. Eddie made repeated false and misleading statements regarding our organization's lawful ability to solicit and receive donations, despite our valid nonprofit status. In our view, his conduct not only misrepresented our organization to others, but also resulted in discriminatory treatment toward a legitimate local charitable organization committed to serving the community.
FNBUBBLES420 Org exists to support individuals with disabilities, autism, PTSD, mental health challenges, physical challenges, service-related injuries, veterans, students, gamers, streamers, developers, and others in need through technology, accessibility resources, education, and community support. As an organization dedicated to helping underserved and vulnerable communities, it is especially concerning that we were subjected to this type of treatment.
Rather than approaching the matter in a fair, objective, and professional manner, the actions taken were dismissive, prejudicial, and harmful to our organization's reputation. The situation became even more concerning when FNBUBBLES420 Org was banned from the Walled Lake Community Group while these false and misleading statements were being made. Being excluded under those circumstances was unjust, damaging, and deeply discouraging.
As an organization dedicated to helping others, we expected accuracy, fairness, and respectful engagement. Community groups should uphold those standards, especially when interacting with lawful nonprofit organizations working to support individuals and families in need. Unfortunately, our experience reflected the opposite. Based on how our organization was treated, we have serious concerns regarding both the misleading nature of the statements made and the discriminatory manner in which our nonprofit was handled.
