An online fundraiser to help a Clever family that lost three children in a car accident last week has raised more than $130,000 so far.
The Go Fund Me account, created four days ago, has a goal of $150,000. At last check, $139,103 had been raised.
The Dobos children, eight-year-old Olivia, seven-year-old Angelina and six-year-old Julia died Thursday when the van they were in hit a semi at I-44 and Chestnut in Springfield. Six other people were injured in the accident, including five siblings of those killed and their mother, 35-year-old Claudia Dobos.
Marcel Popa organized the fundraiser for his cousin, Ionel Dobos, the children’s father, to help with funeral expenses and future expenses.
