How to Help Las Vegas Victims and Families
After the tragic events last Sunday night in Las Vegas at the Route 91 Harvest Festival, many innocent lives were lost and hundreds were left injured.
The countless stories told of those risking their lives to save others and the long lines to donate blood show just how great human beings can be. Others have stepped up as well to help the victims and their families. So far the UFC, Michael Bloomberg, Zappos, Kris Bryant and Bryce Harper and many more have done their part.
