A north Fulton nonprofit that teaches young people how to recognize sexual predators, avoid dangerous situations and, if necessary, escape attackers wants to expand the number of kids it equips to protect themselves, particularly those whose families cannot afford to pay for such training.

With that aim in mind, Revved Up Kids is undertaking its first fundraising event, Shamrock n Roll, on March 16, to be held at the Atlanta Athletic Club in Johns Creek. It promises to be a fun evening, featuring gourmet food and drinks, music and dancing, casino-style games, a wine/spirits pull, and raffle prizes.
The organization decided to host Shamrock n Roll because, although private donations and grants have helped it reach disadvantaged communities, a fundraising event offers an opportunity for supporters to come together in celebration of accomplishments while also laying the foundation for future impact.

Revved Up Kids was founded in 2010 after Alli Neal and her husband David realized a need facing Atlanta children. Since Revved Up Kids launch, almost 12,000 children and teens throughout metro Atlanta and north Georgia have been trained to protect themselves from sexual abuse and exploitation. Proceeds from Shamrock n Roll will help Revved Up Kids move toward its goal of training 1,000 young people a week by 2020.

Revved Up Kids is selling tickets and sponsorship packages via its website. Already signed on as sponsors are Black Dog Signs, Kaiser Permanente, Grimes Insurance, and Choices to You.
