LAS VEGAS – Verizon and our more than 163,000 employees worldwide extend our heartfelt sympathies to all of the friends and families of the victims from the horrific October 1 shooting in Las Vegas.
Any Verizon Wireless customer who would like to help the victims and their families can easily donate to the National Compassion Fund. Created by the National Center for Victims of Crime, The National Compassion Fund collects money for victims of mass casualty crimes and distributes that money directly to the victims and their families. 100% of the funds received through this text-to-donate effort will be distributed to those impacted by the October 1 shooting in Las Vegas.
