BYRNA SHIELD BULLET RESISTANT BACKPACK BODY ARMOR

10% of every purchase goes to the Meadow Pollack Memorial Fund to supply inner city schoolchildren with ballistic backpack body armor and other school supplies.

Andy Pollack became a nationally recognized activist for increased school safety measures after the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland Fla. on February 14, 2018, which took the lives of 17 people, including that of his daughter, Meadow.

Since that day, Andy has made it his life’s mission to continue advocating for smarter, real-life solutions to an increasing, yet avoidable issue in the United States.

RUN

• If you can get out, GET OUT!

• Make sure you have a clear path to exit the school safely

• Don’t take anything but a phone with you, just go!

• Keep going until you KNOW you are safe, don’t stop outside the school

HIDE

• If you can’t run, hide

• Find a room to lock yourself in

• Close, lock and barricade the door with whatever you can

• Turn off TVs, lights, close blinds, and silence your cell phone

• Move to the HARD CORNER: the corner of the room on the same side as the door that can’t be seen into unless someone walked in

• Get behind something hard if possible, like a refrigerator, desk, cabinet, etc.

• Text 911: Give them your location, how many people are in the room with you, and any info you may know about the shooter

FIGHT

• Be prepared to defend yourself. Any plan is better than no Plan. Any action is better than no action!

• Attackers aren’t expecting Resistance. Many will stop their attack at the sign of any opposition

• Use whatever improvised weapons may be available, fire extinguishers, chairs, scissors, etc.
