In response to the mass shooting at the Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee that occurred on Monday, March 27, 2023—where 3 children and 3 adults were murdered and others wounded—VictimsFirst started the Nashville Covenant Victims' Fund to ensure there was a place where the public could donate where 100% of their donations will go directly to those victims/survivors of the shooting.
To donate, visit the Nashville Covenant School Shooting Fund on GoFundMe.
We are families of over two decades of mass shootings across this country. One of our family members survived the Vegas mass shooting and was a teacher and substitute teacher at Christian schools. She urged us to create this GoFundMe to help the families of the deceased and wounded at the Covenant School in Nashville.
We, at VictimsFirst, agreed. All donations are tax-deductible.
Our families of previous mass shootings have been re-victimized when nonprofits say they are collecting donations for victims but do not actually give donations directly to victims. VictimsFirst's philosophy is very different. We believe in full transparency, honoring donor intent and providing the victims the opportunity to choose for themselves how to spend your generous financial gifts meant for them.
We, VictimsFirst have started this fund to make sure that 100% of what is collected goes DIRECTLY to the victim base so the victims’ families and those wounded/injured are
protected from fraud and exploitation. You can read more about what we do and who we are at www.victimsfirst.org.
Depending on how the Covenant School decides to proceed, VicitimsFirst will either
join forces with them, with the National Compassion Fund, or distribute what's been collected directly ourselves. We will guarantee that your financial gifts—every penny—will go Directly to the victim base. We are here for them.
All donations are kept in a separate bank account specifically for the victims of the Covenant School.
Thank you for your compassion and kindness.
VictimsFirst's EIN is 32-0656956.
If you do not want to donate online, you can also send your tax-deductible donation via check to VictimsFirst with "Nashville Covenant" written in the memo line. Make checks payable to Victims First, Inc.
