Billings Wear Orange

Moms Demand Action and Wear Orange are dedicated to honoring the lives of people in the United States affected by gun violence and elevating leaders across the country who are demanding an end to gun violence by taking action. It is a time for everyone in our community to come together to show our collective power in addressing gun violence.

When high school student Hadiya Pendleton was shot and killed in 2013, her friends turned their grief into action, and wore orange to raise awareness about gun violence prevention. This June marks the 11th year we’ll be coming together to #WearOrange and take action.

On June 6, join Moms Demand action to honor all lives taken and injured by gun violence as part of National Gun Violence Awareness Day—commemorated every year on the first Friday in June.

They are doing our part to turn Billings orange by setting up a table from 12:00 – 2:00 PM at Courthouse Park with information on Wear Orange and other ways we are working to end gun violence and how you can be involved. Please stop by to say hi, learn more, or help us talk to the community!
