A GoFundMe set up for slain New York Police Department officer Jonathan Diller has raised more than $500,000 for his family after he was killed on Monday.
On Thursday, a statement on the crowdfunding site for the fallen 31-year-old NYPD officer said it has raised more than $573,000 — through nearly 8,000 donations — ranging anywhere from $25 to $5,000.
“Thank you everyone for your continued donations,” a message on the site read. “What started off as an attempt to put together $10,000 has exploded to over 10x that in less than a day.”
“It’s almost overwhelming to see,” the message added. “The amount currently raised seems almost life changing, but unfortunately the only life changing part of this story is life that was lost. Every penny counts for the Diller family at this point, please keep spreading the word. Thank you.”
