teens needed for Prevent Drunk Driving project!!

THIRTEEN YEAR OLD NAMED NATIONAL SPOKESPERSON FOR NATIONAL DRUNK DRIVING AWARENESS CAMPAIGN.

What Becca Levy lacks in years she more than makes up for with heart. The 13-year-old Washington D.C. native has just entered her teens but has already had her fill of the drunk driving accidents that kill thousands each year.

“Did you know that every 32 minutes, a person dies is a drunk driving accident in America? When I learned this, I realized that this was something I wanted to do something about--and the best way was through music. It’s a language that all young people speak.” With that resolve behind her, Becca could not be happier about being named National Spokesperson for the Stop Drunk Driving Now Kid’s Saving Kid’s CD Campaign. The campaign marks the first time that talented young musicians from across America will work together to us their music to raise awareness about the dangers of driving under the influence.

Here’s how it will work:
A total of 30 artists will appear on a digitally distributed CD, and the music of these talented young people will be available for free downloading by anyone in America. When people visit the page to hear the music, they will see a host of messages--designed by high school and college students--about the brutal costs of drunk driving and prevention messages.

Ronald Bellanti, president of Boston-based Illumina Records AND ... put something here about his interest in drunk driving prevention conceived the idea. “This is another weapon in our drunk driving prevention arsenal,” said he said. “The earlier we start kids thinking about not getting behind the wheel drunk the better."And that is exactly what the Kids Saving Kids Campaign will do. The artists that appear on the CD will all be under the age of 18. That means that the music will not only be created by young artists but geared to young listeners--the very people we need to start soaking in these messages.

The uniqueness of this opportunity is not lost on the artists. “What better way to use my music than to save other kids' lives? Drunk driving affects everyone regardless of his or her age. I hope you will join me in this fight. Together we can all make a difference,” Becca said.

To submit your music for consideration you must submit a MP3 or a WAV file of ONE of your songs. Also include your age, hometown, and YOUR PARENTS’ contact information. You can submit your music at: ksksubmit @ stopddnow

I checked out Becca Levy's music after reading about the Kids Saving Kids Campaign. Its hard to believe that she is barely a teenager and already using her talents as a musician to contribute to such a positive cause. This seems like an awesome opportunity for young artists to get their name out there and be a part of something bigger then themselves.

NKM CONGRATULATIONS on your sobriety. I know that one in four drivers on the road are drunk. That is just awful and we need to do everything we can to make this stop.
I am glad that you are healing in every respect. Maybe you will help others to never make that mistake. Thank you for getting sober and sharing your message.
