Help me!

This world needs you,
as I need your hand…
This world loves you,
as I love your soul.
Help me, when I’m alone,
when something worries me,
and I will give you something else,
I will teach you what I know!
Help me when I need you in trouble!
Help me, when it is scary,
and I will free you from another danger!
Here is my hand, let it protect you, so you will not worry.
I give it to you, my powers, my heart…
Lets help each other with whatever is possible…
Lets live holding our hands!

Fatal reflections

Fatal Reflections® is a computer-simulated situation of accident, resulting from alcohol abuse.
Young people tend to believe that tragedies due to alcohol and other drug impairment only happen to other people. Fatal Reflections® generates a personalized multimedia presentation in news story format featuring your students. Take digital pictures of participants and assign them roles in a motor vehicle crash or party scene. Fatal Reflections® creates a fast-paced, custom news story that describes an incident involving alcohol and places your students in the middle of the situation. Engage your audience in a meaningful discussion about the very real consequences of alcohol misuse and abuse. Influencing your audience to consider alternative choices to alcohol misuse and abuse begins with engaging them in meaningful discussion about personal responsibility and the consequences of choice.

Choose your way

"Choose your way" aims to inform the young people in Bulgaria, how they can improve their quality of life and the atmosphere in the local community by organizing preventive voluntary initiatives, aimed at reducing alcohol abuse, drug use, driving risks and risk of AIDS. Through the campaign is presented an example of such socially useful activity directed at reducing alcohol abuse and subsequent driving.

The initial attraction of attention will be done through:

before the specific event by disseminating information in the media, internet and Facebook;
during the specific event by distributing information cards, containing basic information about the event such as place and date.

Within this activity, participants can use free of charge:

• alco-simulator that will visualize personal results of simulated sober driving and of one under the influence of alcohol;
• alcogoggles that simulate human behavior under the influence of alcohol with different concentration of the alcohol in the blood (e.g. between 0.7 and 1 promiles, between 1.2 and 1.5 promiles, and between 1.7 and 2 promiles).

Within the campaign, for the first time in Bulgaria, citizens can see themselves how they will look after computer-simulated accident resulting from alcohol abuse, called "Fatal Reflections". The last generates customized multimedia presentation in the form of news involving a group of actors whose digital photos were taken and they were given roles in an accident with a vehicle. The simulation creates a "top" story, which describes the incident as a result of alcohol abuse and puts participants in the center of the situation. The result engages the audience in a discussion about the real consequences of alcohol abuse.

As a reward for their participation, the participants will receive a special notebook, developed in the project framework.

For the campaign you need: 1 simulator, website, 2000 information cards, 150 posters and 300 notebooks per event, 40 t-shirt for the volunteers and the team in the specific town, 3 pairs of alcogoggles, distract-a-match game, "Fatal reflections" simulation, tent and van for transportation.
