### Groceries for Guns
The attorneys at Goodman Acker, PC were honored to be lead sponsors for the Groceries for Guns program.
The goal was to to get guns off the streets and away from criminals and children. The concept is simple: anyone who had an unwanted gun could exchange it for a $50 gift card from Meijer; no questions asked. Meijer operates a number of retail and grocery stores in the area. The program was run in conjunction with the Wayne County Sherriff’s Department, who trace the serial numbers to make sure the weapon was not stolen and then handled the disposal of the guns so they would not end up back in the wrong hands.
Last May, over 200 weapons were exchanged at an event hosted by St. Paul Tabernacle Church of God in Christ in Detroit and Bishop P.A. Brooks.
Gun violence is rampant in Detroit. In 2012, there were 333 homicides involving guns and another 1,263 nonfatal shootings – both increases from the year before. Goodman Acker is hopeful our efforts through Groceries for Guns and other initiatives will help reverse this disturbing trend.
