Every day, lives are needlessly shattered by the tragic consequences of neglecting seat belts while driving or riding in vehicles. The failure to fasten seat belts can result in devastating injuries and even loss of life during accidents. These incidents, often avoidable with the simple act of securing a seat belt, underscore the critical importance of this safety practice. In the following segments, we will present a charity event aimed at raising awareness about this issue, shedding light on concerning statistics, and demonstrating how seat belts can be the difference between tragedy and safety on the roads.
In response to these sobering realities, organizations like the Kailee Mills Foundation have taken up the mantle of change. By advocating for seat belt usage and road safety, they strive to prevent further heartbreak and ensure a safer future for all.
As part of their ongoing efforts, the Kailee Mills Foundation is excited to announce their upcoming fundraising event, the 3rd Annual Buckled in Black Gala. This engaging and impactful gathering aims to not only honor Kailee’s memory but also raise crucial funds to support their mission of promoting seat belt awareness and preventing needless accidents.
Join us for an evening full of inspiration, celebrating our community of families and supporters. The 2023 3rd Annual Buckled in Black Gala presented by the LAW OFFICE OF D’ANN HINKLE will be held in the heart of the theater district at the Ballroom at Bayou Place.
