Dover Federal takes part to help atTAcK Addiction

Dover, DE- atTAcK Addiction is a non-profit organization that exists to raise awareness about the disease of addiction while fighting to remove its stigma by educating communities, assisting families touched by the disease, and by supporting those in recovery.  atTAcK Addiction was created in response to Tyler Armstrong Keister’s accidental overdose in 2012; the three capitalized letters in atTAcK represent Tyler’s initials.  In the month of March, Dover Federal Credit Union employees raised money that was matched dollar for dollar by the Credit Union totaling $1,588.95 for this meaningful cause.

atTAcK Addiction is a statewide organization that is fully volunteer operated.  It is the organization’s goal to help young people realize the dangers of alcohol and drugs so that they and their families never have to experience the loneliness, pain, and tragedy that accompany addiction. Speaking at schools, prisons, and other venues where there is an interest, atTAcK Addiction strives to create real, effective, positive change within Delaware.  To get involved or donate to their cause, visit www.attackaddiction.org.
