Becky Savage

Becky is the mother of Nick and Jack, and the Co-Founder of the 525 Foundation.  Her sons died on June 14, 2015, after attending graduation parties with friends.  They were drinking, and at one point they were both offered pills. The pills were OxyContin. They were found unresponsive by Becky the next morning.  Now Becky is a prevention specialist and has been a Nurse Educator for over 30 years.  She is a sought-after National Speaker educating teens, parents, first responders and school officials on the dangers of prescription drug misuse. Becky is passionate about Primary Prevention through outreach, education and support.

Becky has a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Ball State University and a Masters in Nursing Education from Bethel University. Becky and her husband Mike love spending time at Donnell Lake, MI with their two adult sons, Justin and Matt. When Becky is not out on the lake or at home in Granger, Indiana, she can be found at an ice rink somewhere around South Bend, or chasing her CRAZY dogs Tucker, Cash, Sadie and Josie Mae.
