In times of tragedy like those in Orlando, it's natural to feel overwhelmed by the trauma and the sadness and to be tempted to give in to despair.
As Mister Rogers told us, though, let's look for the helpers. They were there in Orlando too, by the thousands -- the first responders off duty and moving toward the crisis and the nonprofits organizing thousands of blood donors, hundreds of volunteers and the outpouring of funds and blankets and more for the survivors and families.
Our capacity to connect, heal and restore is unlimited when we work together to create a better world ...
Thank you for your own support and encouragement of our efforts and let us know how we can help you ...
