The years-long court case began in 2021, when Bruce Puterbaugh sued Kars4Kids, saying he "felt taken advantage of" when he learned his donation would not go to "underprivileged kids from all over the U.S.," according to court documents.
After making his donation, he learned that the funds went to Oorah, a company dedicated to Jewish heritage and summer camps in New York and New Jersey. In a testimony that the judge described as "strikingly candid," the company's chief operating officer, Esti Landau, said her organization does not primarily focus on helping economically disadvantaged kids, according to court documents.
In its reasoning for the ruling, the court stated that the advertisements were misleading by omission and stated that the Kars4Kids name, paired with the advertisements were "likely to deceive the public."
"We believe this decision is deeply flawed, ignores the facts, and misapplies the law. It's well known that we are a Jewish organization and our website makes it abundantly clear. Take a look and judge for yourself: www.kars4kids.org," a spokesperson wrote.
Kars4Kids must pay Puterbaugh $250 and has 30 days to pull the ads in California.
