US EditionGoFundMe for Eric Dane's Daughters Verified After Brief Review Pause, Donations Top $338,000
The fundraiser raised over $290,000 from nearly 1,900 donors but was paused due to unclear ties to Dane’s family and concerns over campaign origins.
- GoFundMe paused the fundraiser and its Trust and Safety team has launched a review, with payment processors holding donations, as the campaign titled "In Honor of Eric Dane" is scrutinized.
- The page lists the organizer as 'Friends of the Dane Family,' and the campaign quickly drew more than $275,000 from roughly 1,900 donors, prompting review.
- The campaign has raised more than $290,000, pulling in over $275,000 from roughly 1,900 donors and notable gifts including $27,000 from Sam and Ashley Levinson and $20,000 from Hailey Bieber.
- The fundraiser's stated goal is to support Dane's teenage daughters Billie and Georgia, so the pause delays access to those intended funds, and Dane's family including Rebecca Gayheart has not publicly commented.
- Crowdfunding tied to celebrity deaths is facing increased scrutiny, with the James Van Der Beek campaign backlash informing current verification efforts, critics and reporting outlets such as the San Francisco Chronicle note.
