Donations to a disabled pensioner who was mugged outside his home have topped £150,000.
Alan Barnes, 67, was left too afraid to return to his home in Low Fell, Gateshead after the attack on Sunday.
Mr Barnes, who is visually impaired, broke his collarbone when he was pushed to the ground.
Following reports of the attack, which police described as "disgraceful", the Help Alan Barnes online donation page was created on the Go Fund Me site.
Beautician Katie Cutler, who set up the page, said it showed "there are so many lovely people out there".
"Not just people in the North East, but we've had people donating from Canada, Holland, down south, the USA, New Zealand.
What sort of person can do such a thing, such people make me think violent thoughts.
