Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Disaster Aid, Safety Education
Mission: To raise funding for the support of educating the general public about firearms and the safe and responsible use and ownership of firearms. The organization also seeks to promote and increase awareness of proper firearms storage practices to prevent unauthorized individuals, including children and at-risk persons exhibiting symptoms of mental illness, from accessing firearms. The purpose of the organization is also to partner with firearms industry members, law enforcement, government entities, academic institutions, and other national, state, and community stakeholders in encouraging safe storage and responsible ownership and use of firearms through advocacy, research, education, and outreach programs.
Programs: Project childsafe, inc. Was created to support project childsafe, the firearms industry's firearms safety education initiative. The project childsafe initiative is committed to promoting firearms safety among firearms owners through the distribution of safety education messages and free firearm safety kits that consist of a cable-style gun-locking device and a brochure discussing safe handling and secure storage of firearms to help deter access by unauthorized individuals. Given the relative infancy of project childsafe inc. , the organization's focus during the most recently completed tax year was split on administrative and state compliance matters and continuing to educate the public about the organization and its charitable purpose.
