THE FOUNDATION

The Matt’s Dream Foundation                    

The Foundation was formed to organized communities in Western Iowa and Eastern Nebraska in the fight against Of Age Drinking and Driving. This is done thur Education in the Schools and Victim Impact Panel Programs with and thru area agencies.

 

The Foundation will also be involved in the prosess of strengthing the penalties for Drinking and Driving by changing state Laws.  Closing loup holes that allow those that break the law, from getting away without consequence.

 

The starting program was called “Matt’s Dream” because to the letter that Matt’s wrote to himself, five years before his death.  It told of his hope and dreams for the future.  To read the copy of the letter, click on “A Letter To Myself” below.

 

MISSION STATEMENT AND PURPOSE

Mission Statement                                                                   

The Mission of the Matt’s Dream Foundation is to educate adults on the dangers of alcohol, and the impact that Drinking and Driving has on the family and friends of the victims. Our main focus is on the 21 and over drivers.

 

Purpose

Our Purpose is to develop a resource to join concerned parents and families and work together for positive change regarding alcohol issues.  We must work together to protect our families from the devastation that alcohol brings.  As parents and family members unite into "one voice," positive change in alcohol policies, education, prevention, and treatment will take place.  We encourage communities to get involved by writing letters and making phone calls to local legislators regarding alcohol problems in their communities. When parents speak up and speak out, policies change.
