SafeHorns unveiled the SafeHorns Place at the University of North Texas Wednesday, eight years to the day after theSafeHorns was formed following Haruka's death, and since then has worked with campus officials, student groups, and police to create a safer environment for students.
“I remember sending it to my parents and saying, oh my goodness, I can’t believe this happened at the school I’m going to in the Fall.” Alumni Ashley Raymond said. "It was just that need we really bonded over and the mission that we needed to do something," Raymond said. Since 2016, SafeHorns has led initiatives to increase lighting around campus, secure golf carts for campus transportation, and foster relationships with police.
"This is tremendous, and I think any alumni that come back and sees this will know exactly what it means,” Raymond said.
