My name is Charlie and I"m a 7th grade student. I will become a Bar Mitzvah in early 2019. Even before the Parkland shooting I worried about gun violence and thought I would focus on it for my Mitzvah project. My project has many layers like raising money for Coalition Against Gun Violence, I had Cease-Fire PA come to my school and speak to students, I attended a political lecture meant for young adults about gun violence & I am also writing this blog.
