A Las Vegas politician has started what is being considered the official fundraiser for victims of the Sunday night’s deadly shooting at the Route 91 Harvest.
Steve Sisolak, a Clark County commissioner, started a GoFundMe to help victims and family members of the massacre.
Sisolak is the chairman of the Board of County Commissioners and is currently running for the governor of Nevada.
He started the online fundraiser with a $10,000 personal contribution, KLAS reported.
Since being created Monday morning, the fund has raised more than $674,000 of its $1 million goal, with many individual, anonymous pledges in the thousands of dollars each.
The original goal had been set at $500,000, but surpassed that within hours of the fund being set up.
Sheriff Joseph Lombardo is asking those willing to do something, to donate to the fundraiser page, KTNV reported.
