Wisconsin - Take a Stand Against Gun Violence: Donate a Pair of Shoes
http://org2.salsalabs.com/o/5610/c/238/p/salsa/web/common/public/content?content_item_KEY=12230
Every year an average of 467 men, women, and children are killed by guns in Wisconsin.
To remember the victims, we will travel the state with a powerful display of 467 pairs of empty shoes. At each stop, we will demand that our leaders address the gun violence crisis.
Please help build this display by mailing shoes to our office (address below) or bringing them to one of the following locations:
Shoe Drop-Off Sites ( July 23 - September 7 )
If you are donating shoes in honor of a loved one who was lost to
gun violence, please contact us so we can make special arrangements.
