Hi there, friend,

Another Father’s Day has passed. And like every year, it brought back a flood of memories — and the painful reminder that my son, Luke, should still be here.

He should’ve had the chance to grow up, graduate, start a career, maybe even become a dad himself one day.

But we will never get to see that future.

That’s why I joined Stand With Parkland — to fight for the safety of every student and to make sure no other family goes through what we did.

This Gun Violence Awareness Month, I’m asking you to take action. As we near the end of the quarter, your support powers the work we do to protect students, advocate for proven safety programs, and hold lawmakers accountable. Will you please rush a donation ahead of our important end-of-quarter deadline?

We can’t change what happened to Luke. But we can honor him by fighting to protect others.

With heartfelt thanks,

Luke’s dad, Tom Hoyer
