Walk Like MADD
Mothers Against Drunk Driving® (MADD) Southeast Texas will host its annual Walk Like MADD Houston fundraiser on Saturday, May 21. Victims, survivors and supporters will line up for this non-competitive 5K run/walk to remember lost loved ones, inspire change and commit to a nation with No More Victims®.
This year, MADD Southeast Texas is excited to host Sheehey-Church, as well as Chris Jacobs, host of the automotive makeover show “Overhaulin’” and “Barret-Jackson Live” on the Velocity television network. Jacobs also serves as a national spokesperson for Velocity’s “Drive Smart,” an advocacy campaign created by Velocity with the help of MADD to encourage and raise awareness for safe driving practices on America’s roadways. Velocity is also the national media sponsor for Walk Like MADD. Jacobs even started his own Walk Like MADD team: OverhaulinMADD. People can sign up to walk and join his team by registering here.
Funds raised through Walk Like MADD help further MADD’s lifesaving mission in the Houston area by supporting its Campaign to Eliminate Drunk Driving, which calls for high-visibility law enforcement, ignition interlocks or “in-car breathalyzers” for all convicted drunk drivers and support for the development of advanced technology.
