As we plan weekend activities for your kids and family, let’s all remember the families of those that have been struck by the recent tragedy. Below are some resources that NPR has listed for helping the Uvalde families.
- An official account opened by the school district at First State Bank of Uvalde to help the victims’ families
- A GoFundMe fundraiser set up by Victims First (a network of survivors and relatives affected by previous mass shootings)
- Blood Drive to help rebuild blood supply that was used to treat the Uvalde victims that were treated at area hospitals
