I thought I’d start a new thread instead of adding this to the current one on the Charleston tragedy.
This scholarship, and the story behind it, gives me hope:
"Charleston Mayor Joe Riley and the Rev. Norvel Goff announced Thursday that it prompted an out-of-state group of anonymous donors to raise $3 million for a scholarship in the name of the church’s fallen pastor, the Rev. Clementa Pinckney.
“I don’t know how many, all I know is they’re generous, loving Americans who wanted no credit, simply wanted to do their part in responding to this hateful (attack),” Riley said, adding that they were from “a good distance away.”
