Awareness Bracelets and Cards
In the
spring of 2005, Shannon Ostien, Kim's cousin,
thought of selling the awareness bracelets to help
raise funds for the scholarship fund. Being these
were called awareness bracelets, we decided a card
should go with the bracelets. The card describes
what to do in the event that a person is found in a
situation of someone being intoxicated and it could
save a life.
LIVES ARE BEING
SAVED!
The
cards are working! We have received accounts of two
separate incidents where the Kim's Awareness cards
were used to save lives!
Students were at a party drinking in both accounts.
One incident occurred during a party at the
New Jersey Shore. The other occurrence was on a
college campus. Each time, a friend had passed out.
Because they had the Kim's Awareness card they knew
what to do. They did not to waste any time and
called 911, and because of this lives have been
saved.
The
cards and bracelets make great stocking stuffers as
well as gifts for young adults turning 21 years old
and students entering college.
All
proceeds from the Kim's Awareness bracelets and
cards go directly to the Kimberly Ostien Memorial
Scholarship Fund at Archbishop Prendergast High
School. See Scholarship section of this website for
more information.
