Today, we wear orange 🧡

We wear orange to honor every life stolen or forever changed by gun violence in America. We wear it for the survivors who wake up every day with memories they never asked for. And we wear it for the loved ones of those lost, who carry unimaginable grief while still finding the strength to advocate for change.

On National Gun Violence Awareness Day, we because every person deserves to feel safe in their school, their workplace, their neighborhood, and their home. We wear orange in remembrance, in solidarity, and in support of actions that can save lives.
