Amber Roof removed her GoFundMe page that was raising money for her honeymoon. Roof started the site after her brother, Dylann, allegedly murdered nine people inside Charleston’s Emanuel AME Church on JUne 17. On a page called “A Fresh Start for Michael and Amber,” Amber Roof writes that her dream wedding day “was full of sorrow, pain, and shame, tainted by the actions of one man.” The couple requested $5,000 “to cover lost wedding costs, to pay bills, and to send us on our dream honeymoon.” Ten percent of what they raise was to be donated to Mother Emanuel.

The Daily Beast' news zine:
Give. Start something good behind her brother's deed. Give to the Mother Emanuel AME Church to fund a multi-racial Sunday Bible study group. Come from across the country and Show up Sundays at 'Mother E' in all finery looking like a flower gift to the Higher Power. Walk the Path to the higher Good. Show respect for the innocent and mercy for those in sin. Add a brick to the golden road to the future. Name a child after one of the Nine. Have to start somewhere.
Hmmmm
