Call My Mom

Teenage kids are notorious for pushing their newfound freedoms to the limits, especially when it comes to getting behind the wheel of a car. While the child might not give a second thought to their safety, the nonprofit Call My Mom is here to help with your child getting behind the wheel of a car.

"If I can save a few lives, I’d be happy," says Debbie Carrigg, 45, CEO, president, and "major mom" of the nonprofit Call My Mom, which has distributed about 500 of the decals nationwide since June. Each sticker contains a unique code number, allowing anonymous tips to be quickly forwarded to the appropriate parents. Teenage trauma cases that Carrigg witnessed during an eight-year stint as an ER nurse helped inspire the project. "I’ve seen all of it," she says of those gruesome accidents. "There are a lot of memories playing out in my head."
