Defined our mission, purpose and vision in addition to creating brand and logo

Partnered with MomsRising on January 15, 2013 – the day following the

one month anniversary of the Newton massacre – to send 300,000

signatures to the Wal-Mart in Danbury, CT on Newtown Road, urging the

store, who currently sells military-grade assault rifles and high-capacity

magazines, to keep its promise to stop selling assault weapons.

Featured on the Today Show and Huffington Post

The ENOUGH Campaign catapulted into existence following the Sandy

Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, CT. Based in Stamford

and established by concerned mothers across Fairfield County, we

grew from 14 moms to more than 1300 mission devotees to end gun

violence. Here are some of our activities and accomplishments in our

maiden year.
