The Magic Cool Bus is a new initiative coming to be a reality in the Yukon: Safe Ride Home Project.
An underground foundation who are making positive waves throughout the city of Whitehorse, are breaking new ground.
Free the Beat Foundation is a project born in the Yukon to encourage people to express themselves through spoken word, music and art in order to promote positive mental health and peer support.
Last month they helped raise over $1500 on behalf of the Mental Health Association of the Yukon and separately, purchased musical instruments for the boys and girls club.
Daniel MacKenzie, co-founder, tells CHON news about their most recent initiative, a safe ride home program.

The peer supported drive home program is the first of its kind in the Yukon.
The foundation is working with political parties, government agencies and other partners to make the safest and least expensive option to getting home safe from bars or bush parties.
They aim to have the Magic Cool Bus up and running by New Years.
Free the Beat Foundation are looking for community minded persons to join up and sponsors who share the vision.
Contact Daniel Mackenzie at 867-322-3188 or visit the Free the Beat facebook page to get involved.
