On November 20th, a tragic shooting at Club Q left 5 dead and 25 wounded. Our community needs our help.
According to GoFundMe, the following GoFundMe pages have been verified, and are safe to donate to:
- Support for the Club Q Families and Survivors: Faith Haug of Good Judy Garage, a small business in Denver, launched a GoFundMe to raise funds for the families of the victims killed in the tragic shooting, as well as to help those injured with medical expenses.
- Victims of Club Q Colorado Springs Mass Shooting: Greg Resha of Colorado Springs is a former employee of Club Q. The fundraiser organizer launched a GoFundMe to help the families of the victims, as well as those who were injured.
You can also donate to the Colorado Healing Fund, which is a non profit that assists in local communities with the financial, emotional and physical needs of victims of mass tragedies that occur in the state of Colorado.
The City of Colorado Springs has also put together a list of mental health resources, which you can find here.
