Disbursement of the Uvalde Together We Rise Fund starts today. Between May and October, the fund raised more than $22 million for the victims of the shooting at Robb Elementary School, their families, and others. A local ten-member steering committee came up with a protocol to determine who gets the money. It will go to nearly 450 applicants who are heirs of the 21 people killed, people who were wounded, people who experienced psychological trauma, people who were shot at, and other people who were on the campus. The amount any individual person receives will be kept confidential.
