Gucci has announced that it is donating $500,00 to next month’s March for Our Lives, scheduled to take place on 24th March in Washington. The March is being organised by student activists from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in response to last week’s school shooting that left seventeen of their classmates and teachers dead.

“We stand with March for Our Lives and the fearless students across the country who demand that their lives and safety become a priority,” Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele revealed to WWD. “We have all been directly or indirectly impacted by these senseless tragedies.”

“I am truly moved by the courage of these students,” Michele added. “My love is with them and it will be next to them on March 24. I am standing with March for Our Lives and the strong young women and men across the United States who are fighting for their generation and those to come.”
