In the days after her untimely and tragic death, loves ones found themselves asking “What would Tiff do?”

Femicide is a silent epidemic. A 2023 study of the top 25 high-income countries found 70% of the femicide cases occurred in the US. The disparity is inexcusable.

Other high-income countries require permits, background checks, secure storage, training, & restricted access to certain weapons.
