John,
Gun violence shapes the lives of millions of people in this country. Every year, we commemorate National Gun Violence Survivors Week during the first week of February because by the beginning of this month, more people are killed with guns in the United States than in any other high-income country in an entire year.
We have a plan to end gun violence, and our plan starts with you.
The Everytown for Gun Safety Support Fund works to change the culture of gun safety in this country through education, research, and litigation. We are the largest gun safety organization in the nation, and we rely on your support to power our work.
The Everytown Support Fund includes:
- Everytown Survivor Network: Supports gun violence survivors, connecting survivors to each other, amplifying the power of their voices, offering trauma-informed programs, and supporting survivor advocates for gun safety. 4,000 gun violence survivors take part in the Everytown Survivor Network.
- Everytown for Safer Cities: Provides grants and training for community-based violence intervention programs aimed at reducing gun violence in cities. $25 million dedicated over five years to expand Everytown Fund for Safer Cities to 100 local groups.
- Everytown Law: The largest team of litigators in the country dedicated to advancing gun safety in the courts and through the civil and criminal justice systems.
- Everytown Research & Policy: A team conducting independent, methodologically rigorous research as the foundation for evidence-based policies to end gun violence.
John, none of our work would be possible without the help of supporters like you across the country. Your donation helps fuel our efforts to advance gun safety in the courts, support our national network of gun violence survivors, conduct groundbreaking research, and so much more. Support our work to end gun violence by making a contribution today.
Thank you for being a part of this movement.
Together we care,
