In 2022, there have already been 213 mass shootings in the United States. This averages out to about 10 shootings a week.
This week, at an elementary school in Uvalde, TX at least 21 young students and teachers were killed. It is the deadliest school shooting since the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting that happened over ten years ago.
Earlier this month, in Buffalo, NY a racist attack by a gunman killed 10 people (and injured three) in a grocery store.
And just the day after that tragedy, another gunman entered a church in Laguna Woods, CA and killed one person (and injured five).
We’ve created Do Good Fund: Gun Violence to support organizations that are advocating for change to end gun violence and an end to these senseless tragedies, as well as those who support survivors and those impacted by gun violence.
Join us in supporting these organizations to make change in honor of those who have been killed.
