Newtown Victims Memorial Pages, Donation Funds, etc.

I think I can safely assume that all of us have been deeply saddened by the senseless tragedy that occurred in Newtown, CT, at Sandy Hook Elementary school last Friday, December 14, 2012.

I thought it would be a good idea to share links to donation funds and memorial pages for the victims so that our community can send prayers, messages and donations to the victims' families as they endure this horrible act of violence during the holidays.

The following are sites dedicated to the victims. If you are planning to donate, please double-check any site that you send your money to (the sites below have been confirmed as sites run by the victims' families, friends, or official charitable institutions). Unfortunately, even in the face of this unfathomable horror, there are some heartless people out there looking to make a quick buck.

Please take a moment to share thoughts, condolences and prayers with the families.
