How You Can Help The Aurora Movie Theater Shooting Victims

The last time I was in the studio it was Friday morning, and it was basically my job, as well as the rest of the media, to let everyone that was waking up know about the horrible events that took place in Aurora the night before. At that point, most are in shock. After the shock wears off and the sad reality kicks in, it is human nature to want to help anyway we can. Here are the ways you can help that those close to the situation say are the most beneficial to the victims.

Twelve people have died and 58 were wounded.

The survivors are in different stages of recovery and some don't have health insurance.

On this page you'll find ways to help both the people who survived and are recovering, and the families of those who died so tragically.
