I've baited the scammer a bit and found some additional info about who the person might really be, or at least the name they use on social media forums. I'm not sure if that is appropriate info to post here or not.

Thank you for posting this, and I'm sorry to hear that a scammer is impersonating your charity. You're welcome to post any info that the scammer is using, but other info isn't likely helpful to warn victims, and I'm not sure you would be able to include enough evidence for it to be listed here. Let us know if you have questions.

Re-posting this important bit from your post for the benefit of anyone reading this:
