You have submitted a purchase request to your boss for $500 worth of 16 oz. cups and small rubber footballs. These items will have your organization’s patch or logo on them with a smoke alarm installation message. You intend to pass these materials out at community events including parades, high school football games, and other community interactions. Your boss has asked you to justify your request.
In a two-page memo to your boss, Larry Pine, justify this expense by explaining the following benefits:
how economic incentives prevent fires and injuries,
how this local program of passing out informative items reduces community risk,
how this program aligns with other national programs to reduce risk, and
how the benefit of using this public education method can socially reduce risk in the community.
