The article says that its subject was an organisation but is this really correct? The website has gone now but the original web captures on the internet archive, from 2008, say that it was initially a campaign of the Strategic Global Initiative which was a 501(c)(3) registered organisation in New York. The campaign only seems to have been registered for tax exempt status organization in New York in 2012. In 2013 the organisation's website was replaced by an announcement that the organisation was moving to Facebook, apparently under new management. Tax records from 2016 suggest the organisation or campaign headquarters had relocated to Tennessee, and was possibly being run under new management who appear to be affiliated with a faith based ministry. There is still a web-search presence under the article name and the original Linked-In page appears to still be active. While a 2016 news report indicates the (original) national organisation has "shuttered", the name appears to still be used by grass-roots fundraising organizers as late as 2020. At least one organisation or campaigner says, on their Facebook page, they are no longer affiliated with the national organisation. Government records suggest the original New York based organisation ceased fundraising in 2013 or 2014 or thereabouts. Was the name sold or given away? It seems that intellectual property rights or charitable status has been taken over by somebody else, so it would be enlightening to know what has happened. Unfortunately there are no sources I can find to verify this. Simply saying the organization has ceased to exist is a statement that cannot be easily verified, as there are no sources that explain what happened, and there is evidence to the contrary. Other people appear to have continued the cause using the campaign name and local organisational fragments. What appears to have happened is that the campaign volunteers have fragmented into various local entities and campaigns, run autonomously, after the national not-for-profit organisation ceased to operate and co-ordinate them due to a fundraising scandal. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 01:50, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
