Fentanyl is a raging danger to our society and many are unaware of the danger it presents in their lives and the lives of those they love. Drug Awareness Foundation’s mission to educate and raise awareness of these dangers is so important to allow people to make choices with full knowledge and ultimately, to save lives. I am proud to support Drug Awareness Foundation’s work.
Fighting Fentanyl: Saving Kids From Drug Overdoses
The Drug Awareness Foundation knows that knowledge is power and when it comes to fentanyl overdoses, knowledge saves lives.
In the upcoming year, your donations will help the Foundation reach their goal of raising $100,000, which will ensure that they can:
•Push for greater access to Naloxone and testing strips in schools and institutions.
•Expand their current public ad campaign and create a second ad campaign specifically for students.
•Meet the cost of their speaking engagements, which are at no cost to their hosts, and pay for their communications.
•Continue to work with community members and lawmakers to pass a federal law, similar to California’s recently instituted Tyler’s Law.
All of which can save countless lives.
