I learned the hard way in March 2020 that PayPal doesn't do this anymore either. I was helping an organization raise money for a Charitable 5k when COVID shut everything down.

This was when everyone thought the world was ending still so we didn't think to change it to a virtual 5K. Refunded all payments on a couple thousand dollars and was out around 4% in processing fees.
