Q: Will there be a set meeting location for this event?
A: The meeting place will be anywhere in your community where violence occurs. A location where lives are lost is where this event will be most effective. The problem is not with the politicians, it's with US! People are not dying on Capital Hill so we have no reason to go there. Our people are dying right in our own communities and this is where we should hold our rallies. It is no longer about going to the suits for help, it's about the suits coming to us. We possess the most valuable tools to ignite change and we must use them to the best of our ability. Our voice is our vote and our labor makes the economy. We all know that tools are needed to build a house. Let's utilize our tools to build a Cease Gunfire industry!!! Everyone needs to tell someone they know to cease fire for this day. We will then be able to make some changes politically.
Q: Why do you seek corporate sponsors? 

A: *We expect companies to be committed to saving lives like we are. The more lives saved, the more business opportunities.

     *A sponsor's support shows concern for the community they do business in.

     *When a business choosed not to sponsor or promote this event, they are demonstrating that their profit from the destruction caused by gun violence is more important.

       Therefore, we should rethink supporting them.

Q: How can I support the cause? 
A: One way to support the cause is by signing the "Petition To Save Lives". You can also promote the event to others or purchase a sticker for one dollar.
Q: Is Cease Gunfire a non-profit agency?
A: No. We are simply volunteers uniting for a change. Non-profit groups are involved in many dealings that we wish to have no part of. We are not in need of a tax shield
     because our cause is real and it's for US, the people. We will leave no one in the dark regarding funds. We are motivated by how many lives we save and that is our reward.
Q: What is your fundraising approach?
A: We sell stickers we wish to be placed in open view for only one dollar. We also sell buttons and t-shirts.
     exactly what the gun companies do: spend money until our way makes financial sense. In no way do we intend to be like them. However, in Rome we do as the Romans do.
     The funds are used to print flyers and promote on the radio. Believe it or not, nothing is done for free. It actually costs more when the cause is positive. If you believe in our
     mission, you'll understand why we're only asking for one dollar and your signature. That's the equivalent of a million dollars. There is no dollar value that can be placed on
     saving lives. If you have a certain level of status in your community, we ask that you purchase a t-shirt to promote the event as well. Only a sincere unity will obtain results.
Q: Who is the main target?
A: We target the youth mainly. Reaching the youth requires all sorts of creative gimmicks. The youth want to know what are they suppose to do when everyone else has guns.
     Guns are apparently easier to obtain than cigarettes. Take a second to consider who will walk down a street where everyone is concealing a gun and tell them to cease fire.
     US!!! Our only fear should be the fear of leaving this planet without making a change.
Q: How many signatures are needed?
A: We cannot put a number on it. Every signature counts.
Q: What is the goal of this event?
A: Our goal is to stop gun violence for everyone and promote gun reform laws. We also want to show the people who support the idea of law enforcement, children and citizens
     being gunned down that everyone under the cease gunfire movement will unite against them.
