The Tunnel to Towers Foundation that was set up in Stephen's honor announced earlier this week that they would be donating $100,000 to the children. A donation page was also set up by the foundation for additional financial contributions.
Familia reportedly worked for the Red Cross and was a 12-year veteran of the police force. Her funeral, which took place earlier today, was crowded with coworkers, neighbors, city officials, and acquaintances who admired the officer's sunny attitude.
