Don’t get it twisted. Big Tobacco doesn’t care about you or your health. To them, you’re just “a replacement smoker” — someone to take the place of someone else who’s already quit or died. You’re not a person. You’re a profit. And they’re already looking for replacements once they’ve used you up.
It’s time to take action against Big Tobacco and help Delaware youth tobacco and nicotine-free. Youth and Adults alike can take action within your communities.
Our greatest weapon is against tobacco. KBG Karnival is a group of nine fun, fast-moving games that teach up to 30 youth about the dangers of tobacco and nicotine.
9 fun, tactile, tobacco prevention and control teaching tools for up to 30 children in grades 1-8. Multiple sets of the Karnival can be provided for large group events.
Karnival Games for elementary students include:
Games for middle and high school students:
Delaware’s Youth Tobacco Control Leadership Program!
KBG Force Captains are groomed, not born. The KBG recognizes that no one becomes a leader without hard work, dedication and diligence. Being a leader mean having to give up some privileges and always being prepared to go that extra mile.
VOLUNTEERING BENEFITS YOU PERSONALLY AND PROFESSIONALLY
KBG holds 2 annual retreats a year. Our summer retreat calls on those who want to be leaders in their community and in their KBG FORCE. KBG Force Captain Training usually occurs in the first weeks of August.
During a winter retreat, youth from all over Delaware and even the region come together to end tobacco and nicotine in our youth because TOGETHER WE CAN! (More info coming soon)
