hello, i am someone who was directly impacted by the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas. it happened in my own community, down the street of the meeting place for my weekly lgbt support group. my mom works at a house that neighbors the one Peter Wang once lived. my heart is so heavy in my chest for the victims and their families as i watch my friends at Douglas suffer from the loss of these lives taken too young. i am making this post as an appendage to my friend’s post (please reblog this one too) who i am more than blessed to have alive, well, and with me. Douglas was a household name for me, I never expected to become a household name for the world. please consider donating to the fundraisers below too.
all of these have been vetted and verified by GoFundMe and will go Directly to the families, or Directly to scholarships made in the victim’s names. I will update the list as new fundraisers are verified. please, giving one or two dollars to each could make an such a large impact on these people’s lives and our community. thank you
