Download your own declaration of independence
Sober Pledge – Grade 9 and up
Sober Pledge Young - Grade 9 and below
On July 4th 1776 the leaders of the 13 colonies, which are now the United States of America gather together in Philadelphia to sign the Declaration of Independence. At that time they were ruled by England. If the war had been lost all 56 leaders who signed the document would have been hung for treason.
When these brave men signed their names to the newly formed Declaration, the ideals for which it stood were not yet in practice. They did not have the freedom they so declared. What they did have was a vision and a piece of paper that was to become one of the greatest goals ever achieved in western history to this day. There Independence came some seven years later in 1783.
In the spirit of unity, happiness and above all freedom, we ask that YOU make your pledge today. Download the Pledge document best suited for you (see above). Read it thoroughly as you sign your name, to what may be the best pledge of your life. Do it with pride, do it with courage and do it with honor.

In 1998 the Roberts family formed a foundation called The Courage to Change Foundation. Its mandate was to assist in the fight against teen addiction. Since that time we have come a long way.
Today we are The Shoeboogieman Foundation. Recently re-named and branded to reflect the young target audience our initial spirit lives on. Our goal is simple – to educate youth and parents on the dangers of drug abuse.
What has changed for us is a deeper focus on youth prevention. We are now developing programs for parents to help in early detection and intervention. We are developing unique leadership programs to engage both parents and young people. Using time periods like New Years Eve, March Break and summer holidays, to initiate these programs we feel we can make a marked difference.
Our long term goal is to continue to reach young people in the school system but also reach parents through internet and public speaking venues. Develop literature for both groups and build strong alliances with other community based organizations with like minded goals.
It is our hope to re-connect families by proactively addressing drug problems before the start.
We are a nonprofit society and are always looking for addition support. Please contact us today and join the fight.
