€100k raised for family of Mayo man missing in Canada
An online fundraising campaign to help the family of a Mayo man missing in Canada has raised more than €100,000 in 36 hours.
26-year-old David Gavin from Castlebar is believed to have drowned after diving off a bridge over the Beaver River in British Columbia on last Friday afternoon.
It is believed he moved to Canada a few months ago for work.
Hundreds of people attended a mass at the Breaffy GAA club last night where prayers were offered for his parents, sister and girlfriend.
A GoFundMe page was set up by the Vancouver Irish Sporting & Social Club to support the search efforts and David's family .
