The fund set up to help the injured victims and the families of all the Westroads shooting victims is receiving help from businesses near and far.

AFLAC has donated $100,000 to the victims' fund.

Bag 'N Save is inviting customers who want to help to add a dollar or more to their grocery bill. The money raised will go directly to the victims' fund.

The management at the Bag ‘N Save near 108th and Maple came up with the idea.

"A lot of the victims were customers here at Bag ‘N Save and so it was very sad and we're really sorry, so we'd like to do whatever we can to help the victims families,” says manager Rachel Christenham.

All the money raised will go to the United Way and First Westroads Bank. Donation may be made at any Bag ‘N Save store through the month of December.

The Von Maurs arranged the fund with the help of the United Way of the Midlands. Donations may be sent to 1805 Harney Street, Omaha 68102.

Donations may also be left at First Westroads Bank, either at the southeast corner of the Westroads Mall parking lot or at the branch just west of 156th and West Dodge Road.
