According to NBC News, the studio confirmed that it will be contributing to the Aurora Victim Relief Fund, established in partnership with Colorado governor John Hickenlooper.
As described on givingfirst.org:
(The fund) “Will only be used to meet the immediate and long-term needs of victims and their families and, as funds are available, the broad needs of those affected in the community.”
Warner Bros. is doing the right thing in the reaction to the shooting, first the studio canceled a planned red-carpet premiere event in Paris, and then they pulled the trailer for its upcoming movie Gangster Squad from Dark Knight Rises showings due to a scene that features a movie-theater shooting.
