LAS VEGAS VICTIMS' FUND
I'm Steve Sisolak, Clark County Commission Chair from Las
Vegas. We are raising funds to assist the victims of the tragic Las
Vegas shooting.
Funds will be used to provide relief and financial support to the victims and families of the horrific Las Vegas mass shooting.
EDIT - October 4
Our community is grateful for the outpouring of support
from folks all across the nation and all around the world. Tens of
thousands of people have made their voices heard and are standing up to
hate and standing together to support the victims and their families
during this difficult time. We want to thank you for your generous
contributions.
Later this week, we will make an announcement about the
process to distribute the funds. We are working in lockstep with all
state and local officials, GoFundMe, and the National Center for Victims
of Crime (NCVC) to ensure the funds get distributed directly to the
victims and families. We will provide additional information about this
process in the coming days.
I want to thank all of you who contributed what you could
to support the victims following this heinous attack. I also want to
thank MGM, Cosmopolitan, Steve Cloobeck and Diamond Resorts
International, Wayne and Kathleen Newton, the Raiders, the NFL
Foundation, and GoFundMe for their large contributions to our fund. Our
work to help rebuild our community is just beginning and I want to thank
you for standing with us during this difficult time.
We have been in touch with GoFundMe since the beginning and
they have been a trusted partner from the moment this campaign
launched. The support for this campaign has been extraordinary, and
donors have had understandable questions about GoFundMe’s fees. GoFundMe
has committed significant resources to the management and distribution
of these funds in the most ethical, effective, and timely way, and they
have also donated $150,000 to directly help victims and their families.
If you’d like to support the victims and their families I encourage you to contribute to this fund.
If you cannot financially support the victims, here’s some additional information on other ways to help:
Give Blood -
United Blood Services will take donations by appointment only. For more visit: http://www.unitedbloodservices .org/lv/
Physical Donations -
If you would like to donate water, canned goods, or non-perishable items, please visit Three Square and Catholic Charities: https://www.threesquare.org/ or https://www.catholiccharities.
com/. We appreciate the outpouring of support, but the substations
cannot currently manage the physical donations and we kindly ask you
donate them to the organizations to ensure their distribution.
As we have stated, if you are missing a loved one, please call 1-800-536-9488.
