Do Something Good
I have to admit, I’m not really looking forward to writing this section today. I started it because I wanted to share the amazing and good things going on and the other ways you could join in to help people.
But with everything going on in the past few weeks, it’s turned into list of ways and links to ways that you can help out those tragedies. Don’t get me wrong. All of those things are important. Those people need help. They need your help. It’s just getting hard and upsetting. Especially this week.
With that, here are some of the ways you can help those victimized by the shooting in Las Vegas: donate blood. It’s a simple way to help and it’s easy to find your local blood bank. If you’d like to donate, Zappos (which is based in Las Vegas and has been a large part of the local community there) is matching donations up to $1 million. Also, Steve Sisolak, the Clark County Commission Chair is raising money to provide relief and financial support to the victims and families of the shooting.
