Past Events & Photos

Mothers’ Against Drunk Drivers
On May 22 we partnered with MADD for their annual walk at Farmingdale State University. It’s a powerful event, from the pathway lined with empty shoes to the thousands of team members wearing the names and/or faces of family members and friends who have been killed by drunk drivers on Long Island. Everyone has a tragic story to tell of young and old who lost their lives because someone chose to drink and drive. But the spirit of the fundraiser is a joyful one, and we were happy to be part of it. Here is a photo from our booth where kids of all ages (as you’ll see) made crafts and walked away with silly bracelets.

We were invited to be audience members on Good Morning America on March 3. We had fun in the studio listening to singer Tim McGraw and the anchors George Stephanopoulos, Robin Roberts, JuJu Chang and Sam Champion.

READER CHALLENGE:
We need you, our readers, to “Be Part of the Equation” and help One Is Greater Than None sponsor another (RAM) Remote Area Medical Rural America Clinic. Our goal for February and March is to raise at least $3,500. (Just think: If 350 families each donated $10 we’d reach our goal quickly.)
Just click here www.oneisgreaterthannone.org or send a check payable to: One Is Greater Than None, PO Box 528, Merrick, NY 11566. Just put Long Island Parent in the memo line. One Is Greater Than None is a registered 501 c 3. Thank you for supporting the girls’ mission.
