Former board member Lance Shaner and his wife sued in Centre County Court this week. They say they want the money back now that the recreation center it was to go toward won't be built.
The charity was founded by former Penn State assistant Jerry Sandusky, who is accused of abusing eight boys. Authorities say he met them through the charity. He says he's innocent.
The charity says it will review the lawsuit and respond appropriately when it has done so.
The lawsuit was first reported by The Patriot-News of Harrisburg.
