Our hearts go out to our sister team Windy City Ghostbusters for this. They're a good group of people that do LOTS of good for kids in need. We know firsthand because Doc and the team gave regularly worked with them and helped them take great donations to the charity of their choice.

A troubling situation surrounding the fan franchise group Windy City Ghostbusters has received attention from CBS News Chicago, with former member Frank Zeimetz accused of taking control of the group’s charity account containing nearly $7,000 raised for children’s hospitals.
CBS reports that Zeimetz submitted state paperwork identifying himself as the organization’s president and director, positions Windy City members say he was never elected to hold. He also reportedly claimed the organization had been administratively dissolved, something the Illinois Secretary of State later told CBS was not the case. The group discovered the filing after attempting to make a deposit and learning they had been locked out of their bank account. After briefly regaining access, members say they found several withdrawals and debit card purchases.
The Illinois Secretary of State has since placed the filing record on hold while it investigates the matter, with the Windy City Ghostbusters making it clear they remain active and intend to keep moving forward with their charitable work.
