About this Event

Because of you, this movement is not just surviving—it is growing, reaching, and transforming lives.

The Union County Community in Motion Walk to End Gun Violence is more than an event—it is a movement of remembrance, resilience, and action. Hosted by M.A.R.C.U.S. (Mothers Advocating for Real Change and Unwavering Support), Sheriff Eddie Cathey, and the Union County Sheriff’s Office, this awareness walk brings together families, survivors, and community members to honor lives lost to gun violence.

Each step represents a life.
Each name represents a story.
And every voice matters.

Your generosity is doing more than funding a walk—it is helping us build real pathways for healing, prevention, and change for our youth this summer.

Through your support, M.A.R.C.U.S. will launch and expand critical Summer Youth Programs, including:

✨ Teen Grief & Healing Circles
✨ Youth Violence Prevention Workshops
✨ “Say Their Names. Save the Next.” Teen Advocacy Program
✨ Life Skills & Mentorship Sessions
✨ Community in Motion Youth Engagement Days
✨ Workforce Development Training
✨ In-Person Work Experience Opportunities

Because of you, we are not just reacting to tragedy—we are working to prevent the next one.
