Deadline: October 7

Celebrate My Drive® encourages teens to make positive choices as they begin driving, like 2N2 -- 2 eyes on the road, 2 hands on the wheel. The 100 high schools with the most commitments will be awarded a total of $3.25 million* in grants:

 

• 2 schools receive a $100,000 grant and a Grand Prize Concert by a chart-topping musical artist

 

• 8 schools get a $100,000 grant

 

• 90 schools get a $25,000 grant

 

WHY? More teens die from car crashes than any other cause – and the first year is the most dangerous.

 

WHEN? National Teen Driver Safety Week, October 15-24, 2014
