$ATWT Oct. 25 US Department of Transportation to.Prevent.Child.Deaths!!!!! with "Look Before You Lock" Campaign http://www.bloomberg.com/article/2012-10-25/arZlFs8cwifc.html



ATWEC Technologies National Child Safety Awareness Program Intensifies with
Premier Safety Fair


MEMPHIS, Tenn., Oct. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ATWEC Technologies, Inc. (OTC
Markets: ATWT), a leader in the child safety industry, continued its national
child safety awareness campaign by hosting the first Safety Transportation
Fair just outside of Atlanta last week.

The announcement comes in the wake of the US Department of Transportation
releasing statistics that at least 23 deaths and an unknown number of serious
injuries to children left unattended in hot vehicles this summer.

In a joint letter issued last month, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood and
HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius called on the nation's Head Start directors
and child care providers to take advantage of the "Look Before You Lock"
campaign.

"Safety is our top priority for everyone on our roadways, but we have a
special responsibility to protect our most vulnerable passengers," said
LaHood. "While parents and caregivers are the first line of defense, everyone
has a role to play in preventing these needless tragedies."

"The DOT is just now telling people what we have known for years – children
and vehicles can be extremely dangerous," said ATWEC President and CEO Alex
Wiley. "The fact that the federal government is getting involved will be
instrumental in helping us deliver our products to day care centers across the
nation. Our Kiddie Voice™ system is designed to prevent any type of accident,
and we continue to work hard to ensure that no child is ever left behind."

ATWEC, acronym for "Around the World Educating Children", has teamed up with a
leading US bus company, National Bus Sales & Leasing, to raise awareness for
the need of education, participation, and legislation that will promote safety
for children being transported everywhere in the United States and abroad.

The Company sponsored Georgia's first safety fair at the Little Ones Learning
Center of Forest Park, GA, who were awarded the fair by winning a statewide
safety drawing contest of the Company's Kiddie Kid™ mascot. The fairs are
designed to educate teachers, parents and children about the importance of
preventing accidental child abandonment and back up incidents in vehicles, and
address a multitude of serious child transportation concerns.

ATWEC's campaign is coming at the high point in this national push, and
features its animated Kiddie Kid™ child safety character. Among the programs
offered is a national contest that rewards day care centers that teach their
children about bus safety through the ATWEC safety comic strips and other
educational materials that children can identify with. The children are
encouraged to become interactive by drawing their own summation of the
character and safety circumstances. Visit Kiddie Kid™ on Facebook at

ATWEC and National Bus Sales and Leasing are now promoting child safety
throughout the state of Georgia. Distributors are marketing and selling the
unique safety systems throughout the Southeast, capitalizing on this urgent
national awareness for child safety, not only for children left in vans and
buses, but also for kids in car seats.

The market for the child care safety transportation industry in Georgia is
estimated at several millions of dollars, as its 3100 day care centers are the
most of any state in the nation.

Shareholders and other investors can find information and photos of Kiddie
Systems™ products, and the Georgia KidSafe™ program posted on the Company's
website home page, www.atwec.com. Additional information on the DOT
