In the modern age, when a tragedy strikes or when a good person is taken too soon, online fundraisers often spring up to help families in their hour of need.
Some are set up in hope, such as when £60,000 was donated in the space of a week to help mum Amy Smith afford immunotherapy in Germany on the chance it could save her life.
