GSWNY’s Support Resources Following Buffalo Mass Shooting

By on • ( Leave a comment )

We understand the recent mass shooting in the City of Buffalo has impacted many both directly and indirectly. This senseless act of violence injured 13 innocent people, claiming the lives of 10 victims. The mass shooting has been identified as a racially motivated attack and hate crime.

Girl Scouts of Western New York stands in unity with the victims, their loved ones, and the community. It is important to note that anti-racism and actively fighting against hate is a clear pillar of Girl Scouting and a value we hold dear.

We understand this is challenging for our girls, and our community to process. GSWNY has compiled a list of resources to help all of us navigate this difficult time.
