Let’s get to work

Our movement is powered by volunteers like you that organize their classmates, neighbors, and friends into powerful teams that fight to end gun violence. Whether you start a chapter or join a digital team, we’re here to support you with coaching and training, and a whole group of powerful volunteers just like you are ready to welcome you to the movement!

Fill out the form below to organize with us in a Campus Hub/Chapter or Volunteer Team. Don’t worry if you’re feeling nervous—we’ll make it easy for you to get started! Together, we’ll end gun violence and beat the NRA.

How do we organize?

To take on the gun lobby and beat the NRA, we’re building a people-powered movement. Here’s how we do it.

Campus Hubs & Chapters

Campus Hubs & Chapters are local teams who work together to build a world free from gun violence where they live. They work on a high school, college campus, or in a particular city/neighborhood.

Starting a Campus Hub or a Chapter is a big commitment. You bring the energy, and we’ll bring the training, coaching, and one-on-one support to help you lead a chapter.

National Teams

National Teams support the movement through various campaigns. National Team members can organize online and don’t need to be part of a local chapter. Do you have an idea for a campaign? Excited about our new member, “Welcome Team”? We’ll get you set up!

However you decide to get involved, fill out the form above, and we’ll reach out to help plug you into the right place!

Who can start an MFOL Chapter, Campus Hub, or team?

Every MFOL Chapter/Campus Hub/and Team looks very different, and while we don’t place specific limitations across the board for who can or can’t organize with us, we want to find the best way for you to organize with us. For example, a Campus Hub at a specific school should consist of students at that school, while a city-wide chapter could consist of community members across various neighborhoods. Welcome Team members can help you find existing chapters that might be nearby, provide information on current National Teams and their campaigns, or even walk you through the process of starting your own. Fill out the form above, and a member of our Welcome Team can discuss the various ways you can organize with us!

OUR CORE VALUES

March For Our Lives is a movement dedicated to ending all forms of gun violence — not just mass shootings but everyday gun violence, police violence and more. We fight for a world where no person has to face this tragic and preventable end.

Our mission calls for something more bold and transformative than gun control alone. We call for a re-imagined world where oppressive power structures are abandoned, and community is embraced. A world where all human needs are met, and the love of people is centered. A world where gun violence is obsolete and all of the root causes of violence are addressed.

We believe that gun violence is ultimately a symptom of five forces:

Gun Glorification

Armed Supremacy

Political Corruption

Poverty

Mental Health Crisis

Gun safety laws by themselves will not stop this crisis. Gun safety alone cannot disrupt this cycle of death. We can’t solely legislate gun violence away. Instead, we must work toward making gun violence obsolete by preventing it from happening in the first place.
