John, let’s take a breath.

Reading or listening to the news lately has meant experiencing a constant flow of gun violence, particularly on school campuses across our country. There’s a heartbreak at the core of all this that never goes away. The trauma feels so senseless, John.

But even as we grieve, we know there’s too much at stake to ever give up our fight. We are resilient and determined to keep everyone – students, teachers, staff, and neighbors – safe both in and out of school.

The reality is, powering this fight takes significant resources – and we may be a strong team, but we’re educators, not professional fundraisers. So as uncomfortable as it may be in a moment like this one, we do have to ask for your help.

Our next fundraising deadline is at the end of this week. Hitting this goal would be a much-needed win for the whole team here at Teachers Unify. John, is there any way you could donate $15 right now to hit our weekly goal and power the work of finally, finally ending gun violence in our schools and communities?

John, asking for money right now isn’t just about a number – it truly is about powering a movement.

Every dollar we raise makes it possible to mobilize support for teachers and staff directly impacted by tragedy, help school communities devise trauma-informed prevention plans, and empower educators to amplify their voices for change.

We will make our schools and communities safer, but our next step starts with you.

We wish we didn’t have to worry about this deadline, but it’s critical to keeping this work going. Will you help ensure we can fully fund our work by rushing a contribution of $15 before midnight? >>
