Join NCGV for Our Fall Reception

NCGV will hold a Fall Reception the evening of Thursday, November 17 at the Busy Bee Café in Raleigh, NC.

This event will be held to help prevent adolescent suicide in North Carolina. All proceeds will support our recently launched Minutes Matter program.

Through our Minutes Matter program NCGV is able to distribute gun safety locks and information to families across the state. The majority of adolescent suicide attempts involve a firearm, through this program we have the potential to save our state's youth.
