Drug Free Ambassadors of Sydney, Australia


The Drug Free Ambassadors' blog posted this story about a recent event:

Crow's Nest Festival

Sunday the Drug Free Ambassadors made a huge impact at the Crow's Nest Festival. 396 people signed the drug-free pledge and over 1000 received information to help them stay drug free.
This campaign is an initiative of the Scientology churches in Australia and the spokesman Cyrus Brooks said of this effort: "It is incredible to hear the stories of people. One lady had taken marijuana to numb her sadness and asked for help, while another person said he had lost 3 friends through drugs and he himself had taken every drug in the book. But he was lucky enough and smart enough to draw the line and quit right there. He did and has been drug free and signed the pledge. It feels so good to be here and part of this activity."
