Overview
Project Unloaded is a nonpartisan fiscally sponsored project of the New Venture Fund. The mission of Project Unloaded is to create a new cultural narrative that guns make us less safe. Through creative and cultural campaigns, Project Unloaded establishes safe spaces for open conversations about guns and provides accurate information about gun safety to inspire the next generation to choose on their own terms not to own a gun. Grant funds would support expansion of the SNUG (Safer Not Using Guns) campaign, a youth council, and the development and launch of a 2023 campaign aimed at young people in neighborhoods with high rates of gun violence.
