You are correct, Rob, but PayPal nowadays offers both business and non-profit accounts that make it simple to avoid intermingling of funds between personal, non-profit, and business endeavors.
To that end, we established a separate PayPal identify for the Fest, and provided some basic documentation back to PayPal that it was a non-profit endeavor, thus avoiding a higher business-rate takeaway. And this is an event which happens (thankfully!) only once per year. The word "sloppy", as my colleague Mr. Figliozzi has used, is still the best word for the situation. It appears to me that G24 wasn't quite "ready for primetime" when it launched, and didn't appear to have its contingencies thought through and accounted for, nor did the enterprise organize itself around sound business accounting practices. Now it has alienated its audience and created ill will among its benefactors...certainly not a good way to run a radio station.
