Kiwis rally behind Sean Wainui's family, as Givealittle page cracks $200k mark

Sean Wainui.

Support has continued to flood in for the family of late rugby star Sean Wainui.

In just over 24 hours since it was launched, the Givealittle page started by the Chiefs to help Wainui's widow, Paige, and their two young children has surpassed the NZ$200,000 mark from more than 5000 donors.

On Monday, the promising Chiefs and Māori All Blacks player was killed in a car crash near Tauranga.

All proceeds from the fund will go directly to Wainui's family to "help with the coming expenses".
