How does your donation make a difference? |
MADD Long Island's lifesaving work is possible because of caring people like you. Your gift to MADD Long Island is a gift of life and love, hope and healing, possibility and prevention.
Your donation is used to help fund programs that save lives and prevent injuries every day in Nassau and Suffolk County. From our Campaign to Eliminate Drunk Driving to the numerous youth programs that prevent underage drinking, your donation touches the lives of countless thousands - including your family, friends and neighbors.
Your gift also helps MADD Long Island continue to provide much-needed Victims Services for those who have experienced the pain and devastation of a drunk driving crash. From literature to our trained victim advocates who offer support to bereaved families and injured victims, your donation helps provide comfort and assistance.
Your gift is greatly appreciated by MADD Long Island and the thousands of people who will be touched by our programs and services.

MADD Long Island School Activities |
High School organizations (SADD, Substance Free Alliance, etc.) can sign up for a year-long interactive program to increase awareness in their community through the MADD Long Island Student Initiative. The program engages students in "outside-the-classroom" learning experiences, fundraising, and strategic planning. Monies raised by each school are displayed on their own fundraising webpage and counted towards MADD's premier fundraising event, Walk Like MADD, to support local programs and services.
To sign your school up for the MADD Long Island Student Initiative, email LongIsland.NY@madd.org.
