FAQs
Have a question about the Drive to Save Lives Tour, our speakers or the booking process? You’ll find answers to the most frequently-asked questions below! If you have a question that is not answered here, please send us an email at [email protected].
Why is it called a tour? Can I pick and choose the speaker/topics I want to book?
We call it a tour because our speakers are constantly traveling and touring the country. Some events we do together, but we book the majority of our events separately. Book one speaker, or book them all! We believe every message on the Drive to Save Lives Tour is life-saving.
I want to bring in several speakers for the same event, is this possible?
Depending on speaker availability, we can make this happen! We love large events and tag-team whenever we can. We can help you choose the right speaker(s) for your event.
How much does it cost to book a speaker?
Speaking fees vary from speaker to speaker, and we can work with you to select a speaker who fits your budget and needs. Many of the schools we have worked with in the past have had good luck fundraising and getting the sponsorship of local businesses and organizations to help with the cost.
Do I need to budget for travel expenses?
Yes, travel expenses are covered by the hosting school or organization. Our speakers live and work all over North America, so travel costs vary between them. During the booking process, we can give you an estimation of expected travel expenses so you can plan.
What kind of events do you speak at?
Our speakers have participated in a wide range of events, from school assemblies and community nights to leadership workshops, conferences, commencement ceremonies, Red Ribbon Week events, Safe Prom activities, summer programs, state conferences and more!
Who have you worked with in the past?
We have spoken at thousands of schools and hundreds of conferences around the globe. Some of the organizations we have worked with in the past include SADD, NSSP, FCCLA, ASB, Student Council, Greek Life, National Honor Society, 4H, DECA, FBLA and Key Club — just to name a few!

What age range and audience size do you speak to?
All our speakers can cater their presentations to middle-school-aged students and above, including parent and community nights. We are comfortable in audiences large and small, from intimate workshops to crowds in the tens of thousands — nothing scares us!
Can a speaker do several presentations in the same area?
Yes, we do this quite often! Schools often split travel expenses by booking several presentations in the same city. If you are interested in this option, just ask!
How much experience do your speakers have?
All of our speakers are professionals and have been speaking for several years. The average speaker on our tour has been speaking professionally for at least eight years. They are charismatic, entertaining, honest and experts on their topics. Each one of our speakers knows what it takes to captivate an audience of young people and leave them remembering a powerful message.
