GoFundMe Stoneman Douglas Victims' Fund
Broward County Public Schools district is dealing with the unimaginable tragedy that unfolded on February 14th at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. 

There are no words to express the sorrow that we are all feeling. 

Donations raised here will be used to provide relief and financial support to the victims and families of the horrific shooting.

Together with Superintendent Robert Runcie, the School Board of Broward County, Broward County Mayor Beam Furr and Commissioners, Broward Legislative Delegation and Broward County Public Schools family, our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families, as well as the entire Marjory Stoneman Douglas community.  

We are Broward Education Foundation - the ONLY 501(c)3 direct support organization solely dedicated to raising funds for Broward County Public Schools.  

There are no platform fees for using GoFundMe, so 100% of the funds collected after payment processing charges will go directly to the victims and families.
