The Jada Bright Heart of Gold Scholarship Fund

Jada Bright was just 23-years-old when she was killed by a drunk driver while driving home from college on Thanksgiving morning 2018.

Jadaโ€™s family created a scholarship fund to offer to a high school senior. Donations can be made at any Hancock Bank.

Did you know that alcohol isnโ€™t the only substance that can affect your body? Drugs are a substance that can be just as dangerous if not more dangerous than alcohol. Polysubstance use and increased drug-impaired driving is becoming more and more of a problem. Letโ€™s all give ๐ŸŽto one another this holiday season and be apart of the change to prevent impaired driving! And rememberโš ๏ธ: Im-paired driving is impaired driving!

Jada's case took a long pause waiting on the court of appeals. We need to show not only the court but all of the other parties that the momentum for Justice and accountability is just as high.

If you want a complete timeline of details of events leading up to Nov. 22, 2018 and wrongdoings of some of the partys you can listen to this podcast.

Season 2 Episode 1: Alcohol, Intoxicants, โ€œAccidentsโ€ in America | Telling Lives 04/21/2023

https://tellinglives.blubrry.net/season-2-episode-1-alcohol-intoxicants-accidents-in-america/

Introducing a new podcast that will touch your heart and inspire you to take action. "Telling Lives Old Stories in a True way" by Beth Barfoot Clarke is back with a powerful new season called "Alcohol, Intoxicants, 'Accidents' in America". This season is dedicated to the memory of Jada Bright, whose life was tragically cut short by a drunk driver in 2018.

Jada's legacy lives on through the high school students across Louisiana, where her story is shared to raise awareness about the dangers of drinking and driving. And now, Beth Barfoot Clarke is using her platform to tell Jada's story and the stories of others affected by this devastating issue.

We want to thank Beth for her dedication and research in bringing these stories to light. She's giving a voice to those who can no longer speak and shining a light on a topic that society often tries to normalize. But drinking and driving is far from being okay, and this podcast will help educate and maybe even save someone's life.

Join us in honoring Jada's memory and spreading the message of this important podcast. Let's work together to prevent future tragedies and make our roads safer for everyone.
