These are the stories of several individuals who came close to gun suicide and how safe gun storage can help save lives.

Mission

We’re uniting people from coast to coast, liberal and conservative, young and old, fed up and fired up, to end gun violence.

Begin to Build a Relationship

We know you care about where your money goes and how it is used. Connect with this organization’s leadership in order to begin to build this important relationship. Your email will be sent directly to this organization’s Director of Development and/or Executive Director.

Talk is the least we can do, which is why Brady’s work is so important. They’re taking action to curb gun violence in achievable, common sense ways by emphasizing education, litigation, and legislation, and by recognizing that gun violence affects everyone in our country, and does outsized damage within black and brown communities.

Invest in Our Safety

More likely than not, your life has somehow been touched by gun violence. Whether it’s your children experiencing lockdown drills or the loss of a loved one, firearms and the human suffering they cause have reached epidemic levels. 

To staunch the bleeding requires expertise, dedication, and money. 

Brady is unabashed in its request of you, the donor. It needs $2 million to fuel its End Family Fire campaign this year. 

Your donation pays for research to target the audiences that most need to hear Brady’s message, to produce the advertisements and to provide training for clinicians about how to talk about the risks of guns in the home and safe storage with patients.

“The next school shooter could be stopped. The suicide that you don’t know your teenager is contemplating with the gun in your closet can be stopped with this campaign,” says Brady President Kris Brown. “And even if it saves just one life, the  investment will be worth it.”
