A GoFundMe page for the Humboldt Broncos ended Wednesday night, collecting a total of $15,185,700 - nearly quadrupling the original goal of $4 million.
The funds donated through GoFundMe will be transferred to a newly created non-profit corporation called "Humboldt Broncos Memorial Fund Inc.," the page says, and will then be distributed for its intended purposes.
An advisory committee is being set up to decide how to allocate the funds.
Sixteen people were killed in the bus crash that occurred April 6.
