Atlanta Grandmothers for Peace announced they are honoring the memory of founding member Doris Benit, who died in March at age 88, by launching the Doris Benit Peace Fund and awarding the Fund’s first grant, $500, to Georgians for Gun Safety.
"It is time for a rational and bipartisan discussion on how to prevent gun violence,” said Georgia State Representative Mary Margaret Oliver, who spoke at the presentation of the grant. “The NRA can no longer be the only voice politicians listen to."
Atlanta Grandmothers for Peace is a group of senior women committed to speaking out against the human, environmental and economic costs of war and violence.
