Review for Sandy Hook Promise Foundation, Newtown, CT, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My experience with this great organization has been wonderful so far. It's a way to educate your community on how to keep our children safe. It also gives you a way to be active in your community and in this day and age is more difficult to do with the computer screens. Many of us have grown distant and almost Even non-existent in our communities among the people that we live right next to. I urge all of you to get involved and be part of your community that you love so much.
Be part of the solution.
Don't be afraid to contact your local government and don't forget that they work for you. We hired them to protect us. We all need to let them know and remind them what role they play in our community and what we expect of them.
We are all affected by these violent shootings. These children had dreams. And we had dreams for them to grow and live a happy life. We promised them that they will be safe. How could we make such a promise to our children if we can't hold our end of the deal up?
Today I'm asking you to keep the promise that we made to our children. Together as a community we can keep that promise if we demand that our government realizes that they work for us they are our employees. Every time you get paid taxes are taken out of your check. Part of that money goes in their pocket to pay for the service that they promised to provide for us. Just as we promised to provide our employer for service that they requested. Let's do this together America! We are all one big community and we need to start acting as such. We need to be number one again and something positive. We need to stop being number one in killing our children because that's what we are. Not by just a little but an ungodly amount. Why are we the only one in the world who has this problem ?we were supposed to be the shining star! Now is the time to rise to the occasion and be The shining Star that we claim to be. Be the country that the world used to envy.
Godspeed
