HCC Northeast College partners with MADD for awareness walk

Mar 22, 2019

Houston Community College Northeast College Interim President Destry Dokes welcomed Harris County Precinct 1 constables and representatives from Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) to the Northeast Campus on March 19 to finalize a partnership with the group to serve as the host location for the Houston First Responder Muster & Walk Like MADD 5K event.

The event is expected to expose more than 600 people to the Northeast Campus as they “raise awareness and funds to end drunk driving and fight drugged driving."

In addition to serving as host, HCC plans to support the initiative by encouraging students and staff to build walking teams to participate in the event. Registration is open at a discounted rate for individuals and teams that sign up before April 18. The Walk Like MADD 5K is planned for May 18 from 9:30 – 11:30 a.m. at the Northeast Campus, 555 Community College Drive, Houston, TX 77013. For more information, visit walklikemadd.org/houston
