This year's event, sponsored by the UMass Memorial Health Injury Prevention Center, will take place on Saturday, December 11, 2021.
The public can anonymously turn in any operable firearm in exchange for a gift card. Through the generosity of financial partners such as Wegmans, the program has collected more than 2,400 firearms and distributed more than 750 trigger locks to those who still have firearms in their homes.

A message from the Worcester Department of Public Health Medical Director, Dr. Michael Hirsh:
An unsecured weapon in the home is a public health danger that leads to more frequent homicides, burglaries, lethal domestic violence, accidental shootings and suicide in the home.
Please honor the memories of all our citizens, young and old, harmed by gun violence by bringing in your unwanted/unsecured weapon(s) (unloaded please) in a plain plastic or paper bag.
