08 Oct Summer 2018 Newsletter
Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,
Today we are reflecting on the progress we’ve seen in the five months following the Bag in the Back campaign launch: vigorous community building, new partnerships, and policy changes in service to awareness and prevention of vehicular heatstroke. Invigorated by this heartening work, we continue to transform our grief into passionate service to the cause of children’s safety.
Without your passion and support in spreading the Bag in the Back message, the launch of this campaign and the establishment of the SFCS would not have been possible. With this newsletter, providing updates on progress, resources and information, and ways to engage further, we aim to recognize your progress and say ‘thank you.’ We hope you will be as invigorated as we are with the progress we’ve made.
