Detech Firesense Technologies on NBC's The Today Show, Helping the Toy Drive

November 20, 2009

(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 20, 2009 ) Milwaukee, WI. Mike Hafeman of DeTech Firesense Technologies, stated "In an ongoing effort from the World Headquarters of DeTech Firesense Technologies to give back to the community, a nationwide campaign to provide toys for children ended with hundreds of donations from its Independent Dealers from all over the country. DeTech Dealers in over 20 states donated hundreds of Flash the Fire Dog toys and fire escape planning booklets that will be distributed to children all across the U.S. before Christmas. Many of these children are in shelters and group homes and would otherwise not have much of a Christmas."

Mr.Hafeman It is always important to remember how fortunate we are and being able to share that with others is a big part of what this season is about. We are proud of the participation of our independent dealers and look forward to working with the DSA and the TODAY Show for this important effort for years to come.

DeTech Firesense Technologies is a proud member of the DSA, who coordinates this effort nationwide and gives the donations to the TODAY Show toy drive. This is the third year that DeTech and its Dealers have participated in the drive.

DSA's Amy Robinson appeared live on NBC's TODAY Show on Monday, Nov. 24, 2008, to present the direct selling industry's donation of more than $9 million in products to the TODAY Show Toy Drive. This is the fifth year of participation by the DSA membership with 32 companies donating a variety of goods from jewelry and cosmetics to books and household goods. And DeTech's own mascot Flash was front and center! Check it out!

DeTech uses its friendly mascot Flash to help educate individual families across the country about home fire safety. DeTech's independent dealers have a life-sized Flash costume that they use to participate in local events, such as safety days, many fire department open houses, fairs and home shows. Flash stars in a free brochure that helps get information to families about how to keep our homes safe from fires, how to plan and conduct fire drills and the latest facts about fires that are important to know.

At a local Safety Day one of the DeTech representatives said, Children just love Flash and the life-sized costume helps attract the children to the DeTech safety displays and booth so their parents can get some of the free information we offer. It's not just fun for the kids, its fun for us too!
Thank you to all the DeTech Dealers who generously donated to the toy drive!
