That's great. So now what happens to the $150K+ in donations that were raised already?

I am sure someone already had plans for it and it will go to a great cause.

I thought money raised through GoFundMe had to be used for the purpose stated or had to be refunded. Can it be used for something else if the stated reason was for replacing the statue?

The Go Fund Me is being administrated by the League 42 Foundation directly and says the following:

Money donated will go directly to this cause. Any donations that exceed our goal will be put to use to fund our operational needs, including our four education programs.

Thanks for the info. Looks like they will still be able to put the donations to good use then.
