From the Organizers: Here’s an opportunity for people and the families of those who have become victims of senseless murders and violence to express their frustration and needs within our community as well as all over the country. We all stand together in efforts to execute a plan to help impact change. We need the mothers and families of those who have lost their lives to violence to please contact us so that we can get the names and birth to death years of your children or loved ones for the citywide memorial that will be dedicated to your children.
