MADD NM hosted its annual Walk Like MADD, presented by Parnall Law, on October 17th virtually this year on Facebook and brought walkers, families, and community partners together across state lines to raise awareness and critical funds to end drunk driving. 198 walkers with 19 teams raised over $20,000 to continue MADD New Mexico's mission to end drunk driving. A huge thank you to our sponsors, walkers, team captains, and donors for making this year's Walk Like MADD a success. A few posts from the virtual walk are below!
MADD Matters
Last year MADD Matters was a fundraising breakfast where sponsors and community partners came together to learn more about MADD New Mexico and the importance of our work to end drunk driving. We moved the event virtual due to COVID-19 restrictions, but still broadcast the importance of our mission to end drunk driving. Content went out on our Facebook page on November 19th to spread awareness of MADD's programs and services and the danger that remains with drunk and drugged driving.
