The foundation in charge of distributing the lion's share of post-Dec. 14 donations announced Tuesday it would seek volunteers from the Newtown community to help properly distribute its remaining $4 million in donations.

The Newtown-Sandy Hook Community Foundation, established by United Way and the Newtown Savings Bank after the shooting, has already paid $7.7 million out of its Sandy Hook School Support Fund to the 40 families most affected by the shooting.

"Distribution committee members must possess integrity, an ability to appreciate perspectives from a range of stakeholders, or affinity groups, while also displaying the ability to think broadly about others' needs," said spokesperson Patrick Kinney in a statement Tuesday. "Members must have ability and desire to address both short and long-term needs in the community that have and will continue to result from the tragedy of Dec. 14."

According to the foundation, the 8-12 members will either be Newtown residents or represent one of the following groups:

  • Families who lost a loved one in the Sandy Hook School shooting
  • Families whose children survived in the most directly affected classrooms
  • Families who have children in Sandy Hook Elementary School
  • Teachers or school staff
  • First Responders
  • Faith Community
  • Business Community
  • Mental health, finance, nonprofit, education or legal experience
To apply, residents are requested to submit the following information to info@nshcf.org by Oct. 4:
  • Name and contact information
  • Community stakeholder group or expertise
  • Brief statement on why you want to serve on the committee
  • Brief bio or resume
  • Three references
