Help Us Bring Halo Glow to Life

A Community Safety Initiative Inspired by Shannon Rushing

My name is Shanta Norton, and I am the founder of Halo Glow — a developing pedestrian and student visibility safety initiative created with one purpose: helping save lives.

After the heartbreaking loss of my sister, Shannon Rushing, on a dark roadway in Ocala, Florida, I knew something had to change. Shannon was struck and killed in an area with limited lighting, poor visibility, and no safe pedestrian infrastructure. Since that day, I have dedicated myself to advocating for safer communities and creating innovative visibility solutions that may help prevent future tragedies.

Halo Glow is being developed as a modern pedestrian safety and visibility system designed to improve visibility for:  * students waiting at bus stops,
* pedestrians walking in low-light conditions,
* runners and cyclists,
* roadside workers,
* and families in underserved communities lacking sidewalks and lighting.
  Our goal is to create practical, community-focused safety products that are effective, comfortable, modern, and highly visible without creating distractions for drivers.

At this stage, Halo Glow is currently in development and pending intellectual property protection. Funding raised through this campaign will support:
  * prototype development,
* safety testing,
* product engineering,
* manufacturing consultations,
* patent and trademark expenses,
* community awareness campaigns,
* and future pilot safety programs.  We are also working toward larger partnerships that could eventually support:  * school safety initiatives,
* Safe Routes to School programs,
* pedestrian awareness campaigns,
* and community roadway safety improvements throughout Florida and beyond.

 Why We Need Your Support

Creating a safety-focused innovation requires significant resources. As a woman entrepreneur with over 25 years of transportation and public safety experience, I am committed to building Halo Glow responsibly, professionally, and with the community at the center of every decision.

Your support will help:

* accelerate safe product development,
* expand outreach and awareness,
* support future safety demonstrations,
* and bring visibility solutions to communities where they are desperately needed.

Every donation, sponsorship, and share helps move this mission forward.

* schools and districts,
* community leaders,
* local businesses,

* student safety outreach,
* and future pilot programs in high-risk areas.

In Memory of Shannon Rushing

Halo Glow is more than a product idea. It is a mission born from love, loss, and the determination to help protect others.

Our hope is that Shannon’s story can inspire safer roadways, stronger visibility awareness, and real solutions that help save lives.
  Thank you for believing in this vision and supporting a safer future for our communities.
