On Sunday in Gilroy, California, at least one gunman opened fire on a crowd, killing three people and injuring a dozen others.
Not only do we stand united against the violence that occurred in Gilroy, but also against the violence experienced by youth in Philadelphia everyday.

When asked about her experience, our #DtWTPhilly ambassador, Duyen, said: this was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. This experience gave me new friends & the courage to speak up. People are going to listen to us & we're making the world better by each step
