Our Mission
Sunday, August 12th, 2007The intent of Hang Up – Save a Life is to provide information and education on the dangers of distracted driving. Consider how many times you personally used or witnessed someone driving while using a cell phone, whether it be talking, looking up a number, or text messages. This seemingly innocent act has caused countless accidents and fatalities.
A distracted driver, who was using his cell phone and ran through a stop light, killed Lauren Elizabeth Mulkey on March 18, 2007. Only 17 years of age, her life ended too soon. Lauren was an accomplished scholar, athlete, and artist. Because of this tragedy, we dedicate this site to the memories of her and all other distracted driving victims.
Please join our campaign and make a personal commitment to prevent distracted driving.
