It's back-to-school season, John.

And for millions of students, the first day of class doesn't just mean new teachers and fresh notebooks—it means re-entering classrooms shaped by lockdown drills, bulletproof backpacks, and the constant fear that a school shooting could happen at any moment.

This is not normal. This should never be acceptable. And together, we can make sure it's not inevitable.

Guns are the #1 killer of this generation. And we're on a mission to secure a future free of gun violence, where students can go back to school without fear of a shooting, and without the need for active shooter drills disrupting the day. If you've had enough, demand action with us and donate to the Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund today to power student leaders, mobilize volunteers, demand action from lawmakers who can make schools safer, prevent gun violence, and save lives wherever it is needed.

Everytown for Gun Safety, Students Demand Action, and Moms Demand Action are pushing for secure firearm storage laws, blocking reckless proposals like arming teachers, and working with schools and communities to create real, evidence-based safety plans. We're amplifying the voices of students, parents, and survivors so lawmakers can't ignore them.

But this work doesn't happen on its own—it takes grassroots power and resources. Your gift fuels trainings, organizing events, digital campaigns, and advocacy efforts in every corner of the country.

Because a back-to-school season should be about learning, not survival. And with your help, we can fight for the safer future every student deserves. Rush a donation now to help secure a future free of gun violence and protect our kids.

Thank you for being in this movement,

Everytown for Gun Safety
