Sponsoring the Make Your Family Safer Action Plan
 
Would your company like to get involved with a vital, cutting edge project that will positively impact the health care community? 
 
NOKEP not only has a positive impact – it's saving lives.  Now you can be a part of it, by participating in the Make Your Family Safer in 15 Minutes or Less Action Plan and Safer Family Brochure.
 
With all of the recent disasters, from Hurricane Katrina to the London Bombings, one need has come to the forefront more than any other -- the need to get victim's identifications, medical histories and emergency contact information as quickly as possible.   If you knew that spending 15 minutes right now could save the people you love in the event of an emergency, would you do it?  Of course you would and so would your customers and employees.
 
What is the Safer Family Action Plan?
 
If a disaster struck right now, would you be ready?  Where is your spouse, your children, the other people you love?  What if they were injured?  Would a doctor know what to do to save their lives, with their specific healthcare needs in mind?  What about your vital documents?  Could YOU put your hands on your bank account numbers, your homeowner’s policy or you birth certificate, if you suddenly had five minutes to evacuate?  
 
We didn’t think so. But unlike the victims of recent disasters, you have a chance to fix that. 
 
Our family found out first hand how critical it is to have emergency information at your fingertips and the devastation of listening to a doctor tell us we'd lost someone we loved, because she was without it.
 
With recent disasters, it's become clear that families nationwide need an easy-to-use system for recording and safeguarding emergency contact information, medical information and vital documents.  And they need it in a format that's easy to grab and take with them at a moment’s notice.
 
The "Making Your Family Safer in 15 Minutes or Less" Action Plan is all that and more.  Our goal is to distribute these Action Plans to hundreds of thousands of families nationwide, giving them the tools they need, to keep the people they love safe in any emergency.   But we need your help to do it…
 
During 2006, The Next of Kin Education Project will be distributing the Action Plan and brochure to hundreds of thousands of families throughout America, free of charge.   In order to do that, we're looking for companies like yours to sponsor this vital effort.  
We know how important it is to companies to truly make a difference in your customers and employees lives, especially in the face of disasters, like Katrina, and we'd like your help to give families tools that will not only change their lives, but safeguard them.   As a sponsor, your company’s logo, live web link, and full page sponsor position will not only be prominently featured in the Action Plan, to help you get the word out about your incredible products and services to potential customers nationwide.   And you'll also have the opportunity to distribute the Action Plans directly to your customers.
 
The Project
 
"Making Your Family Safer in 15 Minutes or Less" and the "Safer Family Tips" brochure, provide an easy to use system for recording and safeguarding emergency contact information, medical information and vital documents.  They also provide tips for dealing with special emergency needs, like safeguarding your children, people with physical challenges, people with dementia or Alzheimer's and meeting the needs of your pets.
To enable us to provide the Action Plans to families all over America free of charge, we're seeking corporate sponsors to help meet our $500,000 project budget.  As you can see, on the front page of the document are spaces for our sponsor's logos and live web link.  The link can go to your company's web site, to one of your current promotions or any specific page on your web site that you want to feature. Since we're a non-profit project*, all sponsorships are tax deductible.
