Shriners International to actively participate in annual burn
awareness campaigns and educate the public about burn
prevention is a key reason for the continued success of
our efforts.

awareness, including an information sheet with ideas to
help you spread the word in your community, one-sheets
and a proclamation template, are now available for

kids that we continue this educational campaign
throughout the year, having Burn Awareness Week as an
initial focal point can be very helpful. There is a flyer
