Teaching Children about being Drug-Free
Helen Campbell of the Church of Scientology of Pennsylvania attended Philadelphia's Columbia North Branch YMCA where she did an anti-drug event with sixty children on June 26th, the United Nations International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking. These children were among hundreds of thousands of children across the globe participating in this day. These children were challenged to lead drug free lives and help others to do the same by getting the "The Truth About Drugs" booklets and taking the drug-free pledge.
