"Hello, my name is Omar Ponce and I am a senior at DeSoto High School. I have been a member of SWAT for three years. I have participated in many SWAT events and was able to record a radio commercial for the prevention of tobacco. SWAT is a great program and has helped me learn about the dangerous effects of tobacco products. I do not use tobacco and that makes me feel strong and fast. It helps me be a better soccer player. Tobacco is not the way to go, it will kill you." |
"Hello, my name is Alejandro Vargas and I have been a member of SWAT for two years. I chose to join SWAT because I think it is a great program that fights for the prevention of tobacco. I choose to be tobacco free because I am an athlete, so I want to have strong lungs and be able to perform better. I would recommend any youth to join SWAT and help save lives." |
