The family of Jay Slater, a British teenager who went missing in Tenerife, has begun withdrawing funds from a GoFundMe campaign that raised over £36,000 to aid in the search. Debbie Duncan, Jay's mother, stated that the money would be used to support the mountain rescue teams involved in the search and to cover travel expenses for family and friends traveling to Tenerife. Despite the withdrawal of some funds, Duncan expressed her continued hope for her son's safe return. The decision to use the funds in this manner has been communicated to donors, emphasizing the family's gratitude for the overwhelming support received.

Do you think it's ethical for families to use donated money for purposes other than the direct search for their missing loved member?

Yes, the family might need that money for any amount of expenses directly or indirectly related to the missing person.
