Leonidas was found about three hours after he went missing.
The Give a Little page has raised over seven thousand dollars for the boy's family.
In a post to the page, his aunt thanked everyone who had helped find him.
She says funerals can be a "massive strain" on whanau, so any contribution is greatly appreciated.
A rahui is in place on the river until one day after the child's tangihanga.
