Dear Friend and Sponsor,

Madison County Volunteer Fire Departments are asking for your help continuing our Fire Safety and Injury Preventions Programs for Children and Senior Citizens.

Every Firefighter in Madison County is confident that fires and fire losses can be prevented or greatly reduced through education. We are asking you to join us in this effort.

Our Volunteer Fire Departments and the National Fire Safety Council, Inc. and you would be providing fire safety and injusry prevention education materials for many of our kids and seniors in our county. These materials have been designed exclusively by the National Fire Safety Council, Inc. a 501e(3) t
ax exempt, nonprofit organization. We strongly believe that by making children and seniors aware of the dangers around them that we can prevent tragic losses and deaths from fire and injury.

To assist in funding these materials, our volunteer fire departments are turning to concerned business, industrial and professional leaders in our communities, asking for your help in providing these materials and services to between 30 and 200 children and seniors.

30 Children = $60.00
40 Children = $80.00
50 Children = $100.00
75 Children = $150.00
100 Children = $200.00
200 Children = $400.00

An acknowledement of those who support this program will be listed on the prestige page of all activity manuals under the heading: “Provided As A Public Service By People Who Care”

Thank you in advance for your concerned support. Your help is greatly appreciated and will surely reflect itself through the children and seniors in our community.
