Most of the carnage during the April 20 massacre happened in the library.
Kahn said the goal is to provide a \”place where children can learn, not a place where children have bad memories.\”
Donations are coming in from prison inmates, kids sending their weekly allowances, children raising pennies in schools, and a family who opted to donate money instead of exchanging Christmas presents.
\”The outpouring has been unbelievable,\” Kahn said.
