Since 2002 Huddle Inc. has been the fulfillment company of the Safe & Sober Prom Night Program, corporate partnered by Wendy’s Restaurants and the Carolina Ford Dealers. During that time, the program has grown by more than 200% and this year will help more than 425 schools educate their students on the dangers of drugs and alcohol. Since the program’s introduction in 1991 by the Lewis & Daggett law firm, more than 300,000 students have signed the Safe and Sober pledge. In addition, more than $20,000 has been awarded to schools with the highest percentage of participation since 2003.

The Safe and Sober Program asks students to sign a pledge card prior to prom agreeing to stay drug and alcohol free on prom night. The school with the highest participation in each region can win up to $2,500. To promote the program Huddle creates and distributes marketing kits that include a banner, posters, pledge cards and corporate partner coupons to all participating schools. We believe the awards and our personal contact with the schools’ prom directors has helped us garner a dramatic increase in participation, from 38 schools to 225, in just one year.
