Drug Free Youth is a group of young DIY musicians that has been educating and spreading awareness to the youth about dangers of drugs through music, arts and extreme sports since 2010. DFYA aims to show drug free lifestyle is more cool than getting wasted at parties or other social events. DFYA encourages to make local musicians to become active in raising awareness about drug abuse and hope to eventually work with mainstream partners. DFYA believes that the best weapon to fight drugs is through the education. DFYA also believes in Straight Edge whereby the power community support and Positive Mental Attitude.
Musicians, Artist, skaters can influence teenagers to prevent drugs through their music, arts and success. DFYA uses fashion, lyrics and lifestyle to influence the youth towards a healthy positive lifestyle. We use icons as a presenter to the audience to be seen as a positive influence instead of a negative one. With the alarming number of teenagers taking drugs in Malaysia, we aim to organize more Drug Free campaigns, concerts and school tours to raise awareness.
Furthermore to educate the youth on dangers of drugs through music, arts and extreme sports activities eventually can prevent them from hitting addiction. To the extend on providing a one stop center for problematic youths to rebuild their self confidence and to sharpen their talents.
DFYA is made up of people from all walks of life who some are Former drug users and some who are not. These people shall give inspirational talks to the youth about their personal experience on dangers of drugs and how they fought and overcome it.
