“Deirdre Hatfield, 27, was steps away from the finish line when she heard a blast. She saw bodies flying out into the street. She saw a couple of children who appeared lifeless. She saw people without legs.” – NY Times
This week, two crude bombs were detonated by an unknown party at the Boston Marathon. The FBI is currently investigating the attack.
CNN reports that 3 are dead and 152 are wounded from the terrorist attack. Included in the dead is an 8-year old boy, who was there to cheer his dad on towards the finish line.
Year after year, the Boston Marathon is a symbol of human achievement and inspiration, but now has been pulled into a blanket of fear.
Our first careers were equipping our nation to fight the war on terror. Today, we’re equipping people like you to make a difference.
From now until June 30, 2013, we are waiving 100% of our CauseVox fees for any fundraising campaign created on CauseVox to help those effected by the Boston Marathon.
Just click here to apply for a fee waiver.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those effected by the Boston Marathon terror attack. Please email us at support@causevox.com if you have any questions or if there are other ways that we can help.
