I did a fundraiser last year to help my son with his Cancer Medical expenses, how do I file these, I collected it then paid it out to him?

Facebook fundraiser 8175.00 raised and then paid out to my son for his medical expenses, who should file this as income?

In general, if you collected funds for his medical care, the income would be considered gifts from the individuals who donated so you would not have to report or pay income tax- as long as there was no quid pro quo (exchange of goods or services).
