I share in this important cause to raise awareness for Building Intolerance to Drunk Driving and Underage Drinking, which has also become my 2006 platform message. As the National Spokesperson for MADD, I am proud to be working with Mother's Against Drunk Driving to help save lives and to make a positive difference. The Reality Cares Benefit is the perfect opportunity for all of us to come together with our community to support this life-saving message," stated Miss America 2006 Jennifer Berry.
“While drinking and driving is a serious problem throughout the country, it is particularly problematic here in Los Angeles where most people rely on their car as their main mode of transportation,” said Todd Michael Krim, founder of The Reality Cares Foundation. “Reality Cares is fortunate to have found great partners in Miss America, MADD and Ed Hardy to help bring attention and funds to this important cause.”
