How to help victims of El Paso Walmart shooting

There are a few ways to help the victims of Saturday's shooting.

EL PASO, Texas — Those looking to help the El Paso community in the wake of Saturday's mass shooting can offer support in a number of ways. 

One option for those interested in helping can give donations through the El Paso Community Foundation online by choosing the 'El Paso Shooting Victims' Fund' to support victims and families. 

A fund is also set up though the Paso Del Norte Community Foundation

The 'El Paso Victims Relief Fund' is collecting money for those affected by Saturday's shooting as well. 

El Paso Giving Day (EPGD) provides a platform and social media tools for local nonprofits to tell their stories and connect with new donors. In 2018, because of you, EPGD surpassed its goal by 34% and raised $409,013.63 for 178 nonprofits.

Blood donation centers in El Paso saw donors lined up on Sunday. 

Some were turned away when one donation center reached capacity. 

The Lifeshare Blood Center in Beaumont has not yet been asked to help with the victims in El Paso, but will allow anyone to donate blood in case that changes. 

My name is Lindsey Davidson. I'm 15 years old and I live in Montgomery, Louisiana. Around September 8, 2017, my doctor noticed some extreme bruising on my legs and decided to run some blood test. After getting a CBC ran, they noticed that my white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets were all very low.
