Support Child Safety: Stop Abuse Today

"In America, we can do anything, but we can't stop school shootings."

I dread the inevitable day when I'll need to teach my child how to respond during an active shooter situation.

Two beautiful lives were lost in Minneapolis as the new school year began.

Research from the Violence Project reveals an important truth: A mass shooting begins long before the actual event, often with the shooter's traumatic childhood.

This is why I'm using my upcoming half marathon at the Bear Chase Race to raise funds for Prevent Child Abuse America . Childhood trauma directly contributes to the development of individuals who later commit these horrific crimes. By addressing trauma early, we can prevent future tragedies. I appreciate your support in this important cause—and as a personal thank you, I will match every dollar you contribute as a donation to Sandy Hook Promise . Plus, every contributor will receive a handmade card from me!

Prevent Child Abuse America

To prevent the abuse and neglect of our nation's children before it occurs and to help families thrive.

Every contribution, big or small, makes a real impact. Even just a few dollars can help move this mission forward and reach those who need it most.

If you can’t donate right now, sharing this fundraiser is also incredibly helpful. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. It means the world to me.
