What day is it? It's October 3rd. And although we'd normally just celebrate the Mean Girls holiday by wearing pink and quoting the movie as many times as humanly possible, this year, the cast is stepping up to give back in an amazing way.
According to Cosmopolitan, two members of the OG plastics, including Gretchen (Lacey Chabert) and Karen (Amanda Seyfried), along with Aaron Samuels (Jonathan Bennett), and Damian (Daniel Franzese), reunited to create a GoFundMe page to raise money for victims of the Las Vegas shooting. Via video, they're asking fans to each donate $3 in honor of the *iconic* date, with the goal of raising $300,000 for the National Compassion Fund, which supports victims of mass-casualty crimes.

"If every fan gave just $3 in honor of October 3rd, just $3, we would hit our goal of $300,000 in no time," the cast says in the video. "Guys, look. We know 'fetch' is never gonna happen, but we can make this happen. On October 3rd, I'll ask you what day it is, but we'll also ask you to help. So, you go, Glen Coco, to GoFundMe.com/October3."
Their GoFundMe page has raised over $40,000 as of Tuesday night, and according to the National Compassion Fund's website, "100% of the funds received through the National Compassion Fund Las Vegas will be distributed directly to victims." Yo go, Glen Coco.
