From 2019-2021, drunk driving deaths in the United States increased by 31 percent, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s April 2023 report. This is a 100 percent preventable crime, and MADD’s goal is to see a future with no more victims.
The 13th Annual UKG & Salah Foundation Walk Like MADD & MADD Dash Fort Lauderdale 5K presented by the Sheriff’s Foundation of Broward County will include an in-person race on Sunday, April 28 starting near Huizenga Plaza in Fort Lauderdale, plus a virtual participation option. Festivities will include children’s activities, an awards ceremony, live musical performances, and vendor/educational booths.
The ROAR Station and LFT LAB charity classes will be attended by Walk Like MADD Fort Lauderdale Founder and Honorary Chairperson Heather Geronemus, LFT LAB & ROAR Station Founder, Adriane Abraham, with classes coached by Alex Piccirilli, a Nike trainer featured on Netflix’s “Kickstart Fitness with the Basics.”
