Numerous atheist groups have decided to team together to collect donations for the families of those killed in the Dec. 14 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Conn.
"The families that have been hurt did not plan for their child's funeral, no parent does," read the press release of the Atheists Giving Aid donation fund, which was created in collaboration by American Atheists, the Society of Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics, and We Are Atheism to help collect donations for affected Newtown families.
"This horrific time is difficult enough without having to worry about how they are going to pay to bury their child and afford counseling for themselves and their siblings left behind," the press release continues.
"Now it is your turn to show that there are more of those who love and care for their fellow community members than those who would kill mercilessly," the press release adds.
