Several Austin restaurants have begun fundraising efforts following the horrific school shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on May 24, where 21 people — 19 students and two teachers — were killed and 17 people injured. This weekend, a handful of restaurants will donate a portion of their sales to help support the victims and their families.
