A fundraising effort for the sons of Maciej Krakowian, a Polish actor who recently died, has rapidly gained momentum, collecting a notable sum in just a few days. As of November 22, 2023, the collection has amassed over 180,000 PLN (approximately $43,000 USD).
The online campaign launched following Krakowian’s unexpected death on November 18, 2023, leaving behind two young sons.Supporters questioned the need for a public collection given the financial status of individuals connected to the case-specifically mentioning a doctor and their family’s apparent wealth-and expressed concern over the timing, so soon after the tragedy. Others argued that obligation for financial support should fall to the state or the event organizer, covering funeral costs and compensation rather than relying on public donations.Despite these sentiments, contributions continue to pour in, driven by a desire to support krakowian’s children.
