Indianapolis FedEx Shooting Victims Fund
Donation protected
UPDATED: Now that a centralized fund has been established with 100% going directly to the survivors of this shooting, we have transferred all of your donations into the Indianapolis 4/15 Survivors Fund: https://www.gofundme.com/f/indianapolis-april-15th-survivors-fund We are only waiting for GoFundMe to list it. We have great confidence in this process, as it provides those directly impacted (families of the deceased, those physically injured and those who survived) with the privacy to cope and the ability to survive and heal the way they choose.
We are very grateful that the FedEx Corporation has established this Fund and that they will be working with the National Compassion Fund to equitably distribute 100% of donations collected directly to the victims’ families and survivors of the facility shooting in Indianapolis on April 15, 2021. For your personal records, the tax-deductible EIN number for the National Compassion Fund is 83-0924922.
100% of what we collect will go DIRECTLY to the survivors of the mass shooting that took place in Indianapolis at the FedEx facility on April 15, 2021.
Our mass shooting families across the nation are devastated that families from yet another mass shooting in Indiana have now joined us all in grief and are now on the path to learning how to navigate what will become a new way of thinking, feeling and living.
We are now collecting donations in order to make sure the victims’ families and those directly impacted from this event receive the funds directly and to protect them from fraud and exploitation. Our families have been re-victimized in the past by non-profits that collect funds for themselves after a mass shooting saying they will “support” the families which is usually the verbiage used when donations do not go directly to the victim base itself.
We vowed this would never happen again, so families of the deceased from the Columbine, VaTech, Northern Illinois University, the Aurora theater shooting, the Oak Creek Sikh Temple shooting, and Newtown (Sandy Hook) joined together to help establish a model where 100% of collected funds go directly to the victims. We are the families who helped establish the National Compassion Fund with the National Center of Victims of Crime, which has given $95M directly to over 3,000 mass shooting victims to date. Since this fund was established, families from across the nation from other mass shootings including Tucson, Vegas, Alturas, Santa Barbara (Isla Vista), Roseburg, Orlando/Pulse and others have endorsed the National Compassion Fund.
The National Compassion Fund has so far distributed funds directly to survivors of 14 mass casualty crimes, including the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando; the Las Vegas Harvest Festival Shooting; the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, FL; the Walmart shooting in El Paso, TX, and the Brewery shooting in Milwaukee. It is currently helping the victims of the Atlanta 3/16 shooting and Roundy’s distribution facility shooting in Oconomowoc, WI.
The funds collected by the Fund go DIRECTLY to the families of those who were killed, people who were physically injured, and survivors who were on site at the time of the shooting and suffered psychological trauma. These gifts to survivors are in the form of financial payments with no strings attached, thereby fulfilling the full intent of the donors (you).
We will make sure that if the National Compassion Fund cannot administer this fund, we will find a way to get the funds directly to the families.
Please join with our families across the nation to help our new, unfortunate family of the April 15th shooting in Indiana. They need you now.
