Catholics from across America have raised $36,100 for a scholarship fund for Nick Sandmann and his two younger siblings.
Members of the group CatholicVote raised the money after Sandmann and his family faced attacks in the national media as well as threats of violence amid the ongoing Covington Catholic High School fiasco.
The controversy started after a video uploaded to YouTube appeared to show Sandmann and fellow students ‘smirking’ at Native American activist Nathan Phillips during a confrontation at the Washington March for Life. The footage provoked condemnation in the national media, as well as violent threats against the students and their families.
