3 of 10 Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related crash at some point in their lifetime. 549 North Carolinians lost their lives to alcohol-related crashes in 2004. National estimates suggest only 1 out of every 100-200 drunk drivers are caught.

Justin Photo2

Justen's story is one of the many tragic stories we hear from victim's everyday.  On December 8, 2006, 7 year old Justen, his friend Patty and his family went out to dinner. As they were leaving the restaurant a drunk driver crashed into their car going 70 mph.  Justen, his stepfather and his mother, who was 7 months pregnant at the time of the crash, were all injured. 8 year old Patty was killed instantly. 

So in Patty's memory, Justen wants to help save the lives of others. His campaign is for everyone to donate $4.87 to support Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD). The significance of $4.87 is one penny represents every life lost due to drunk driving last year in North Carolina. This money would go to help support MADD's life saving mission.

Our goal is to convert every dollar donated towards Justen's campaign (which can be in any amount) into pennies and cover his elementary school floor and break a world record.  Justen's goal is to reach $37,655.10 which should be easily achievable from support from people like you.  This campaign is part of Justen's healing process in which as you can see from his letter he wants to help save other people from experiencing the same tragedy.

To learn more about Justen and to see pictures and join his effort visit our website on Facebook at www.causes.com/madd  .  We appreciate your consideration and hope you will encourage your family and friends to join us as well.
