Orange Ribbons For Gun Safety

Our daughter is Jaime Guttenberg. Her older brother is Jesse. She was murdered in Parkland Florida on February 14, 2018. She was a beautiful, kind and intelligent teenage girl. She danced with tremendous grace, had an amazing smile, and loved to laugh. She was supposed to have her whole life ahead of her but it was cut short because of gun violence.

We have created a 501(C)(4) group called Orange Ribbons for Gun Safety.  The purpose of our organization will be to support causes related to gun violence and to advocate for policies and candidates who believe in common sense gun safety.

A little background behind the name Orange Ribbons. Jaime's favorite color was orange. Her dance studio friends who loved her very much decided to honor her memory by wearing orange ribbons. Because of Jaime's love of dance and the dance worlds love of Jaime, the orange ribbon spread through dance studios around the nation and the world and through Broadway. A few weeks after Jaime was murdered, we learned that orange also happens to be the universal color of the gun safety movement. With that, our hope is to make the Orange Ribbon the symbol of the gun safety movement. My hope is that all people who care about public safety from guns will help me to do this.
