Bucks for Burns
The Julian Burton Burns Trust and Clipsal Australia have announced a three year national partnership to save children’s lives. Proudly promoted by electrical wholesalers Australia wide, this is a cause every electrical contractor will want to support.
For every Clipsal smoke alarm you buy over the next three years, Clipsal will contribute 50 cents per sale to the Julian Burton Burns Trust. The partnership program is called Bucks for Burns and will feature on product packaging and point of sale material at your nearest electrical wholesaler.
There are six Clipsal smoke alarms in the range that with your support, will hopefully contribute many thousands of dollars to the Trust:
- 755SMA – Firetek Ionisation Surface Mount
- 755PSMA – Firetek Photoelectric Surface Mount
- 755FM – Firetek Ionisation Flush Mount
- 755PFM – Firetek Photoelectric Flush Mount
- SD100 – PDL Ionisation, Surface Mount
- SD200 – PDL Photoelectric Surface Mount
Your contributions stay in your state and will be used to provide essential resources for the Trust’s Prevention Programs, Patient Care Services and Research Equipment.
Julian Burton OAM, CEO and founder of the Julian Burton Burns Trust says, “We are extremely grateful for the partnership with Clipsal Australia. Burn injuries are horrific, they are painful and disfiguring, especially for young children and together we believe this partnership will prevent many burn injuries through prevention and education.”
“People use the word partnership a lot in business but this really is great relationship, one we are extremely proud to be a part of and that we know our customers will support.” said Damien Cummins, Executive General Manager, Clipsal Australia.
Clipsal smoke alarms are available from your local electrical wholesaler branch.
