Live Forward! supports families in the wake of the death
of a loved one due to a traffic-related incident. Live Forward! is all about
bringing great good into the world by creating living legacies in honor and
memory of each of these loved ones.
It begins with a loved one’s name on the back of our
KEEP KIDS ALIVE DRIVE 25® Run to Remember Team t-shirts as we take on the
Pike's Peak Ascent Trail Race August 17, 2013 – a chief fund-raiser to support
these families. It expands as families create events, community actions,
projects, new campaigns, and support for establishing new foundations to bring
ongoing good into the world.
