A group of students at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado have started a gun violence prevention campaign. Called #MyLastShot, the student-led campaign calls for citizens to put a sticker on their ID or cellphone that asks for photos of their body to publicized in the event they are victims of gun violence. 

The sticker reads: "In the event that I die from gun violence, please publicize the photo of my death." 

Citizens can sign up on at the #MyLastShot website to order an ID sticker. Those who sign up are then encouraged to let an advocate know that they've taken this pledge to have their photos publicized in the event they are victims of gun violence. 

Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting survivor turned activist David Hogg has joined the campaign and publicized his card on Twitter.
