John – I’ll be straightforward here: We fell short.  

Even after you and other Brady advocates took action to double your impact, we still missed our fiscal year end goal by $7,201. But with lives on the line, our Board has agreed to extend this critical match opportunity and give us one last chance to meet our goal and make this a landmark year for gun violence prevention: 

Please, will you donate now – any amount you can – and have your donation DOUBLED in our fight to end gun violence? We can only extend this match until midnight tonight and I’m counting on you to help us close the gap, because opportunities like this are rare. 

Meeting our goal means protecting families from facing the tragedy that too many have already faced. It means honoring the loved ones that have been lost by an epidemic that has raged in our country for decades. It means supporting the tireless efforts of survivors like Fred Guttenberg, Liz Dunning, and Steve Kerr who have turned their loss into action. It means ending the NRA’s deadly hold over Congress and finally passing lifesaving legislation.

To be blunt: 2021 is on track to be the deadliest year for gun violence in recent memory. And all of the gun safety progress Brady is fighting for isn’t possible without your help. Please, will you donate now and have your donation doubled while you still can? We need all of our advocates to take advantage of this vital match opportunity or we risk losing the progress we’ve made.

You haven’t let us down before – and we need you now, more than ever.

Thank you.

Kris Brown
