LAMONT MEYERS FOUNDATION INC


  • Mission

    The Lamont Meyers Foundation's mission revolves around raising funds to acquire and distribute 19,000 naloxone kits. This number symbolizes Lamont's untimely passing on his 19th birthday. By ensuring the widespread availability of naloxone, we look forward to protecting our youth, families, and communities from the devastating consequences of drug overdoses & poison.

    About Us

    Our purpose is to help stop and prevent fatal drug overdoses in our communities by ensuring that naloxone is readily available and accessible. We aim to raise awareness about the increasing prevalence of fentanyl overdoses & poison, driven by the statistic that 4 in 5 deaths in the US by 2022 will be caused by such overdoses. Inspired by the tragic loss of our son Lamont Meyers to a fentanyl poisoning, our mission is to raise funds to purchase and distribute 19,000 naloxone kits, prioritizing the safety and well-being of our youth, families, and communities.
