The Kevin D. Shippy Foundation has been established to bring awareness to the senseless number of lives lost to motor vehicle accidents. Statistically, car accidents are at the top of the list of youth-related deaths in the United States. KDS will serve as a foundation geared towards helping and empowering youth to value life, make better life choices, and increase knowledge regarding vehicle safety. These efforts will be done through community events and fundraisers with the hope of bringing the youth and the community together to make our roads safer.
