I can’t tell you how much his story has touched me.

The Kyle David Miller Foundation was started by a family who tragically lost their 3 year old son when his booster seat failed. The foundation provides 5-point car seats to families who can’t afford to buy them.

The goals of the foundation are:

1. To educate the public about seatbelt failure and car seat safety.

2. To provide safe carseats to those who otherwise could not afford them.

3. To seek and promote legislation that will increase driver safety through more stringent testing standards.

4. To work with auto manufacturers toward the continued improvement of seatbelts and vehicle safety devices.

Their mission is to keep children in a 5-point safety harness up to 80 pounds. They are accepting applications from families who cannot afford to purchase these seats and are supplying those seats through our tax-free donations.

I am passing this along not only so that you can visit their site, but also so that those of you with children under 80 pounds are aware of the danger.

Are all of your 80 pound and under children in a 5-point restraint car seat?
