In the summer of 1998 a non-profit safety campaign called Keep Kids Alive Drive 25 was founded by Tom and Wendy Everson in Omaha, NE.
Since then the organization has embraced 1,000 communities, representing 48 states, two Canadian provinces and the Bahamas.
The mission is to end deaths on neighborhood roadways from speeding and have ‘zero deaths, zero injuries’. The sign is a constant reminder to drivers that their speed needs to be reduced on residential roads.
To accomplish their mission the safety campaign works to educate citizens in a commitment to create safer streets in neighborhoods for the benefit of all.
