Ruling on Buying a Sacrifice from Donated Money

Question
Is it permissible to buy a sacrifice and distribute it to the poor from donated funds?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: If the donors agree to buy sheep with their money and distribute them to the poor, that is permissible, for meat is considered wealth and it is permissible to give it as charity. And God knows best.
