FILL THE HELMET
FIRE PREVENTION/EDUCATION PROP GIVE-AWAY PROGRAM GUIDELINES
These guidelines set the requirements for
eligibility for the Burns Recovered Support Group (BRSG) Fire
Prevention/Education Give-Away Program. To be eligible,
an organization (fire department or ambulance district) has
to participate in Fill the Helmet for the amount of years
required, inclusive of the current collection year.
To be eligible for the "current collection year",
the organization's Fill the Helmet event has to take place
prior to June 1 of that year and the donation has to be received
by BRSG prior to June 15. BRSG reserves the right to
determine all eligibility requirements.
If all guidelines are met, the fire prevention/education
prop becomes the property of the organization. If fulfillment
is not met after receiving the prop, the prop must be returned
to BRSG. The prop is to be in good working order upon
said return as per Memorandum of Understanding.
All organizations receiving a fire prevention/education
prop must file a quarterly report to BRSG listing:
- how many times the prop was used,
- how many people attended the educational
event
- the ages of the people in attendance.
Should a report not be turned in for one year,
the organization will have to return the prop in good working
order as per Memorandum of Understanding.
Continued participation with Fill the Helmet
is required for complete and permanent ownership as set within
the guidelines.
It is also required that the organization
agrees to loan the fire prevention/education prop to other
departments upon request.
Organizations will be ineligible for one year
after winning from the Fill the Helmet Fire Prevention/Education
Give-Away drawing.

The goal of BRSG, as stated in our Mission
Statement, continues to be to help "educate the public
in burn awareness and prevention". There is no
better partner to obtain this goal than those in fire service.
In the attempt of BRSG to make participation
in this program as fair as possible, this give-away will be
conducted at the luncheon for Fill the Helmet. The give-away
will be done as a lottery with the names of all eligible organizations
in a helmet. The winning organizations will then draw
the name of the prop they will receive from another helmet.
