On Thursday the 5th of July,
The community of west pennant hills including the surrounding suburbs lost two teenagers:
Jack , 15
Jennifer, 13
as a result of a horrific homicide inflicted by the one person the two kids should have been able to trust, their own father. As a result, the matter has remained incredibly heavy on our hearts.
Jack, a member of my maths class, will constantly remain in my thoughts.
And it is in his memory I intend on making a difference.
I decided to raise money for the Homicide Victims Support Group.
This is an organization supporting families throughout the trauma and grief they may be experiencing as a result of situations like the tragic shooting at West Pennant Hills.
As a community, we need to come together, raise awareness and make a stand.
If it doesn't stop now, when will it?
