Why is gratitude important?
Fortem is seeking Australian businesses to partner with for Thank a First Responder Day to help magnify the impact of gratitude to the hundreds of thousands of first responders across the country who are always there for us when we need them the most.
We all know a first responder – they may be our father or mother, son or daughter, brother or sister. They could be our neighbour, another parent at school drop off, or a teammate on the sports field. Many first responders are also our employees who volunteer as a first responder outside of the workplace. They are ordinary people who do extraordinary things, and it’s important we show them appreciation for all that they do.
How can my business or organisation get involved?
- Come on board as a Thank a First Responder Day sponsor or supporter.
- Host a Thank a First Responder Day event at your workplace on or in the lead up to Thank a First Responder Day.
- Provide promotional items or discounts for first responders on Thank a First Responder Day.
- Fundraise for Fortem Australia.
- Promote Thank a First Responder Day in your workplace and to your networks.
- Record a video of thanks or write a message of gratitude and post it on your social media.
- Post your videos and messages of thanks to the Fortem website.
