June 6-9 Is Wear Orange Weekend 2025

From the St. Louis Archdiocesan Task Force On Gun Violence Prevention:

Wear Orange is a movement to honor victims and survivors of gun violence and to raise awareness of the impact of gun violence, which began in 2013 by friends of Hadiya Pendleton.  Hadiya marched in President Obama’s second inaugural parade.  One week later, she was shot and killed on a playground in Chicago. Soon after this tragedy, Hadiya’s friends commemorated her life by wearing orange, the color hunters wear in the woods to protect themselves and others.
