Description

Robby Poblete Foundation's mission is to reduce gun violence through its gun buyback program, and transform them into instruments of hope and opportunity through its art and vocational programs.

Accomplishments

To date, RPF has held six gun buybacks, and has succeeded in getting nearly 650 weapons out of circulation. We have worked with local artists and launched five Art of Peace exhibits using the materials from the decommissioned guns. And we have distributed nearly $20,000 in apprenticeship scholarships.
