In Their Memory

A lasting space to honor and remember loved ones whose lives were taken or forever changed by gun violence.

We invite families, friends, and community members to submit a name, photo, and/or message in memory of someone they would like to honor. Each submission helps us remember the lives behind the statistics and hold space for love, grief, legacy, and hope.
