Gary Morris acknowledged that DEA Educational Foundation deserves worldwide recognition for the work that it does. Morris noted that the lives of the youth in New York to Los Angeles have been directed away from drugs and they have been replaced with such activities as athletics and dance.

“I am excited to virtually share the stage with friends and truly spectacular talent,” Morris exclaimed.
