Men Against Gun Violence
Men Against Gun Violence is a bipartisan no-profit aimed at curbing gun violence perpetrated by men. It's aimed at all forms of gun violence not just mass shootings e.g. In 2010 alone, 19,392 Americans used guns to kill themselves. After MAGV was formed I was asked to take a look at the a new identity to replace the existing one.
