Every day 1200 lives are lost to tobacco addiction. That's 1200 mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, sons, husbands, wives and friends.
We are building a photo memorial to honor your loved ones whose lives have been cut short because of tobacco, and I need your help.
If you have lost a loved one to tobacco, please consider sending us a photo to use in the memorial. You can send your photo(s) one of two ways:
Email it to us at tobaccofreekids@tobaccofreekids.org. Please put "Photo Memorial" in the subject line.
Send it to us in the mail at:
Campaign for Tobacco-Free KidsAttn: Photo Memorial1400 Eye Street, NWSuite 1200Washington, DC 20005
Please include the person's first name and the state where they lived. If you'd like you can also include a short story about the person to accompany the photo - stories will make the memorial even more powerful. We regret that we can't return your photos to you, but I can assure you they will send a powerful message about the human toll of tobacco and help prevent future lives lost.
Please click here to send this message to family or friends whom you think would like to submit a photo.
We will debut the memorial at the Washington, DC Kick Butts Day event on April 5. This moving display will serve as the backdrop to Members of Congress, faith leaders, members of the public health community and youth advocates as they urge Congress to take action to keep kids from smoking and save America's children from a lifetime of addiction and disease. We will also use the memorial at events across the country to raise awareness about the deadly toll of tobacco.
Will you consider sending us a picture of someone you've lost to tobacco?
Thank you for all you do to keep America's kids safe from the dangers of tobacco.
Sincerely,
Carter HeadrickDirector, GrassrootsCampaign for Tobacco-Free Kids
