Claire Davis’ parents, Michael and Desiree Davis, have
established the Arapahoe High School Community Fund honoring
Claire Davis through the Denver Foundation. The fund will support
mental health care, anti-bullying programs and other community
needs.
“Our plan is to use those contributions to both support existing
programs and possibly create new programs to try to put an end
to school shootings and school violence,” said Michael. “The idea
is to focus on behavior health and mental health and anti-bullying
programs. We want to help kids – particularly teenagers – to do
what we can to stop the violence.”
In a statement on the Denver Foundations’ website, President
of The Denver Foundation David Miller, said: “The Denver
Foundation offers our deep sympathy to the Davis Family and the
entire Arapahoe High School community for their tragic loss. We
are honored be able to help the Arapahoe High School community
honor Claire Davis and help with needs that extend beyond the
immediate. We will be working with Claire’s family to determine
where contributed dollars will make the greatest difference.”
