(CNN) When a gunman killed 11 people at a synagogue in Pittsburgh last year, Muslim communities in the area raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the victims. Now the Jewish community in Pittsburgh is reciprocating the kindness after a massacre at two mosques in New Zealand. New Zealand is mourning after a gunman opened fire Friday at two mosques in the city of Christchurch, killing at least 50 people and injuring dozens. May those who were injured heal quickly and fully, and may the memories of the victims forever be a blessing." Last year, the crowdfunding campaign "Muslims Unite for Pittsburgh Synagogue" raised more than $200,000 to help the shooting victims.
