President's Message
Dear Members and Friends
This is the official newsletter
of the Humpty Dumpty Association (HDA). We hope you find it informative.
P.A.G.E. - Is the name
our Newsletter
The letters P.A.G.E. are
an acronym formed from the initial letters in the words of our trademark
slogan, Protect A Good Egg®. The name reflects our desire to
maintain a direct focus upon that which has been our mission from
the beginning: prevention of traumatic brain injuries.
HDA has continued to
grow. Here are some highlights of what we've been doing to prevent
TBIs.
Safety Programs &
Public Service Announcements
From January to December
of 2004, many safety programs were conducted. Public Service Announcements
(PSA) were created for Family Radio WFME and aired in the Metro
New York and New Jersey area.
Our injury prevention
efforts are focused on preventing tramatic brain injuries (TBI).
