The Take a glance compaign

Explanation: I was going to start this on my myspace page, and will still carry it out there to some degree. Below are the blog entries explaining my goal with this campaign. I will use this site to post any information that I locate on this subject. Thank You!




The Take a Glance Campaign

I've been thinking about it and I'm going to start a campaign. There already is one about not leaving your kids in the car, so I'm going for the social responsibility side of the coin. For now I'm going to call it "Take a Glance", simply because thats all it would take to save a baby left, forgotten in a car. I'm going to post things year round. When I get the funds I'm going to make stickers and flyers.

It can happen any time of year. We hear most of the stories in the summer, but it happens in the fall too, when the temperature of a car rises above that of the outside air, just as it does in the summer. It also happens in winter, when the reverse happens to the children.

So, to reiterate my last blog, Take a glance in the cars you pass as you go to work or cross the parking lot into walmart or wherever you might be.

It's so insainly simple.



Easy Fix

In the news I have heard far more than is reasonable stories about children being left in hot cars all day to die. It is, of course, the responsibility of the parents of said children to prevent this. However, that isn't enough for the children who have already suffered their fates.

There are millions of people on the internet. Suppose we all take the time while walking into work, wal-mart, or where ever, to casually glance in the back seats of the cars we pass. How many of us would find a small child? How many of us would save lives?

So far this year more than two dozen children have died this way. I'd like to think that we can stop this. It's such a simple thing to glance in a car. I'm challenging you, the reader, to do just that.

Thank you, and if it suits you, please repost this. Imagine if one million people took the time to glance.

Thank you.
