Also killed was 9-year-old Christina Taylor Green of Tucson.
A neighbor was going to the Giffords event and invited Christina along because she thought she would enjoy it, said her uncle, Greg Segalini.
Christina had just been elected to the student council at her school. The event, held outside a Safeway supermarket north of Tucson, was an opportunity for constituents to meet Giffords and talk about any concerns they had related to the federal government.
The school is Mesa Verde Elementary School, in Tucson, AZ. I think one of the best things that we could do would be to send support to their Parent-Teacher Organization. I have an email in to the PTO President to make sure that we can send things to the school address. I'll post that when I get a reply.
Update: Posted Beth's answer as a comment. Here's the address for the school:
Mesa Verde Elementary School
1661 W. Sage
Tucson, AZ 85704

Chad,
Thanks so much of thinking of us in this devasting time. Please use the school address. We will be supporting the family and our school community anyway we can. Christina and my son were classmates and have been friends since first grade. She was an intelligent, talented, and beautiful girl who will be truly missed.
