All funds raised by the Families Pooling Together event will help to educate the public about the dangers of prescription drug abuse. The Save a Star Drug Awareness Foundation was founded by David and Gail Katz and their daughter Melissa following the death of David and Gail’s son, Daniel from a prescription drug overdose. Save a Star Drug Awareness Foundation is a registered 501(c)3 public charity, whose mission is to fight the current epidemic of prescription drug experimentation and abuse that threatens the lives of our nation’s youth. More people die each year from prescription drug overdoses than from heroin, cocaine, methamphetamines, and inhalants, combined.
