On Wednesday November 7th, 2018, 12 people were tragically killed at Borderline Bar & Grill in Thousand Oaks, CA. While not all of the victims names have been released yet; we do know that many of them were young kids and a police officer, Sergeant Ron Helus who was first on the scene. This hits us extremely close to home as The Dolce Foundation started in Thousand Oaks in 2012 and I have been to Borderline personally countless times over the years. I also attended both Cal State Channel Islands and Cal Lutheran University both of which had students present during the shooting.
We are setting up a fund for the victims and their families with all proceeds going to pay for medical bills, funeral costs, and any associated set back for the families of these victims and those involved in such a tragic event. Please follow the link to donate and urge anyone affected by this tragedy to reach out to us directly at brendon@thedolcefoundation.org for updates, local resources or anything you think would help at this time.
