2019 Annual Appeal

Dear Friend,

As a friend of The Burn Prevention Network, you know we are on a mission to make “A World Without Burns” possible through targeted education and programs which serve those most at risk in our community: infants and young children.

Our generous donors have already helped us to:

·     Give fire safety/burn prevention kits to thousands of local new birth families

·     Provide life-saving educational resources to 400,000 people in our area

·     Support and recognize the heroic efforts of local first responders

·     Treat children with burn injuries to a memorable overnight camp experience

And because these programs and services are so crucial to preventing burn injury and helping burn survivors lead fulfilling lives, we offer them ALL AT NO COST.

 

Through the generosity of supporters like you, our programs reach over 400,000 people in 22 counties right here in Pennsylvania. But there is so much more to be done to prevent burns in our community – so many more parents, teachers and caregivers to educate, so many more first responders to support and so many more survivors of devastating burns to empower, that we hope that you will help us do even more in 2020.

Each year 400,000 Americans receive medical treatment for a burn injury, the majority of which are preventable. It only takes a second for an injury to occur, but the devastation of a serious burn can last a lifetime. By making your tax-deductible donation now, you can be the hero that saves a child from the physical and mental scarring of burn injury.

Please help the Burn Prevention Network make “A World Without Burns” possible for kids in our community this holiday season. Use the link below to make a secure contribution using PayPal, or your credit or debit card.

Look at what your contribution will provide:

$50 – Teach a classroom of local elementary school children skills that could save their lives

$100 – Provide Home Safe Home fire safety/burn prevention kits to 20 new birth families

$500 – Sponsor a Survivor Re-entry Presentation to a school to prepare classmates and faculty for the return of a student who has survived a burn injury with scarring

$1000 – Give a burn injured child memories that will last a lifetime by sending them to Camp Susquehanna

Sincerely,

B. Daniel Dillard
