AMPED4LIFE with Pat Buckley
In association with Amped4Life - a New Zealand based charitable organization - YOUR LIFE COUNTS! reaches thousands of teens across New Zealand through Pat Buckley’s amazing work with Amped4Life. Pat is a former drug addict and has dedicated his life to educating teens and young people about the dangers of using drugs. Pat has died 3 times and has lived to tell his incredible battle for survival. He’s covered in tatoo’s literally from head to toe and as a result Pat describes himself as a man of colour! This man has credibility with our teens. They love him and they respond to his compelling life saving message.

Other speakers include Natalie Gill, Rory Butler, Keith Murphy and more.
All of YOUR LIFE COUNTS! presentations are relevant to today’s youth generation.
As Marshall McLuhan once said "The Medium IS The Message" - our YOUR LIFE COUNTS! presenters live and breathe their message and that speaks even louder than words.
