People around the state have been stepping up to support their local fire department’s virtual fundraising campaign. This issue’s spotlight is on Coweta County Fire Rescue, who like many other departments adjusting to the pandemic, have been working overtime to transform their traditional in-person Give Burns The Boot® campaign into a virtual one.
Coweta County held their virtual drive the week of December 13-19. In addition to a great promo video that was created, featuring Fire Chief Pat Wilson, they were able to advertise in several locations, including the fire department and county Facebook pages, and firefighters even posted to their personal social media platforms as well, advertisements ran multiple times in the Newnan Times Herald, flyers were posted in business locations around the county, for example, Great South Harley Davidson posted it on their website to help spread the word. In addition, donor names are entered into a drawing for one of two beautiful gift basket giveaways. What a great incentive!
Burn injuries and trauma haven’t stopped and many thanks to Coweta County Fire Rescue for not allowing COVID-19 to stop them. Your efforts are greatly appreciated! Click HERE to view their promo video.
