We Stand with Our Squirrel Hill Family - Tree of Life Donation Information

PITTSBURGH — Thank you to everyone who helped to support the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh "Our Victims of Terror Fund" by making a donation at Dollar Bank.

One hundred percent of donations collected for the fund will support psychological services, support for families, general services, reconstruction, additional security throughout the community, medical bills for all those involved, as well as counseling and other services that may prove necessary in the future.

If you're still looking for ways to help the Tree of Hope synagogue victims, here are some suggestions:

GoFundMe:

A GoFundMe account was started for the victims on Saturday, October 28.

According the page, "All funds raised will directly go to the Tree of Life Congregation from GoFundMe, and there is no third party intermediary."

WOUNDED OFFICER ASSISTANCE: 

The Federal Order of Police has set up a fund at the Pittsburgh Police Credit Union to help the officers who were injured in the synagogue shooting. It's called the Injured Officers' Fund.

The fund was established in order to provide a safe place for people to donate to the officers and ensure they were not getting scammed.

Here's the location of the Pittsburgh Police Credit Union:

1338 Chartiers Ave
Pittsburgh, PA  15220

In addition, the Fraternal Order of Police is selling shirts as a fundraiser to help the injured officers fund. You can find more information here.
