Max Thomas is a photo on the GoFundMe campaigned launched to support his parents.
A fundraiser has been launched in support of the parents of a young boy killed in a two-vehicle crash in Dartmouth.
The GoFundMe has raised nearly $45,000 as of Wednesday afternoon in memory of five-year-old Max Thomas.
“Max was a very special boy and anyone who ever had the honor to meet Max, fell in love with his kind and loving personality,” written on the GoFundMe page. “His smile and laugh were infectious, his love of the outdoors, dinosaurs and playing with his best bud Mathew will be his lasting legacy.”
The collision between a pick-up truck and car happened on Friday night at the intersection of Portland Street and Spring Avenue.
Stuffed animals, flowers and candles have piled up around a make-shift memorial at the entrance to Portland Estates.
Following the crash, social media was filled with a single burning candle photo that said “For Max” as people changed their profile pictures and posted to their timelines.
The Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation stated that Max donated organ and tissue to give others life.
Police are still investigating the cause of the crash.
