This year’s campaign runs from Nov. 1 to Jan. 2 and is the 35th annual Project Red Ribbon campaign.
Project Red Ribbon raises awareness about the risks of impaired driving during the holiday season and urges people to plan for a sober ride home from holiday events.
MADD is asking residents of Saskatoon to show their commitment to sober driving by displaying a red ribbon or red ribbon car decal on their vehicles, key chains, purses, briefcases and backpacks.
