Two years ago in our hometown of Boston, terror looked us in the eye. The Marathon Bombings shook us, shocked us. But the world reached out with kindness. And together we, united, stood Boston Strong.
Now, terror is back yet again, and it’s our turn to reach out. All net proceeds from our Paris je t’aime Boutique will be donated to charities benefitting the victims of the Paris tragedies. Shop it here.
Prefer not to shop? Here are three other ways to stand united.
1. Donate to the French Red Cross
Give directly. The Red Cross is also accepting donations in English.
2. Offer Your Home
French travelers stuck in the States can use the hashtag #StrandedinUS to find a temporary home. Reach out on Twitter, or use Airbnb’s disaster-relief tool to offer your home for free.
3. Pray Not for Paris, but for the World
Beirut and Baghdad are reeling from bombings, too. As you show solidarity with France, seek ways to also send support to the other nations in the wake of tragedy.
