Kick
Butts Day - A
Nationwide Celebration
Kick
Butts Day ( www.kickbutts.org)
is the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids' annual celebration of activism
that empowers youth to
speak up and take action against tobacco use at more than 2,000 events
from coast to coast.
With an adult smoking
rate of 22%, a youth smoking rate of 19% and 13% of pregnant women
smoking, tobacco
is taking a terrible toll in South Carolina. But
by taking measures, such as
increasing the state cigarette
tax,
eliminating secondhand smoke from workplaces, preventing tobacco use
initiation
among youth and promoting cessation – the toll can be
significantly
lowered.
Special
Thanks to our In-Kind Sponsors!
