Eric Dane's sudden death at the age of 53 after a long battle with ALS left his fans, friends, and loved ones in shock.
The star's close group of friends has now rolled out a GoFundMe campaign to assist in supporting his two teen daughters, Billie and Georgina, who are young teens.
The fundraiser has crossed the $250,000 mark after his friends decided to provide financial stability for the girls' future needs.
This includes ongoing expenses and long-term support following their father's sudden and unexpected passing.
Dane shared his two daughters with his former wife, actress Rebecca Gayheart, who played an important role in caregiving during his illness.
Family and friends of the late star described his daughters as the center of his world and emphasized the importance of ensuring they are cared for as they grow up without their dad. In a very touching tribute that was shared as part of the campaign, Dane's pals noted that even as his health deteriorated, he remained so committed to assisting others. It's believed that a certain director from the Hollywood industry made a generous contribution as well, but no names were released to the public so far as to who that might be.
