Lesley Francis PR was selected by Points of Light, the world’s largest organization dedicated to volunteer service, to promote a Savannah disaster preparation event as part of a 14-city tour which continues throughout the summer.  This initiative took place at a recent Sand Gnats game where Lesley Francis PR personnel worked with volunteers to help 500 Savannah residents build a free disaster kit to ensure they were prepared in the event of a disaster or unforeseen emergency. The free kits included a flashlight, first aid kit, cleaning supplies and other items proven to keep people safe and prepared.

Kevin Hart, Senior Communications Director at Points of Light, says, “We selected Lesley Francis PR for their strong media contacts in the Savannah region and extensive experience in the non-profit arena. The Savannah event was one of the first in our 14-city disaster preparation tour and we were able to enjoy high quality exposure in the press, internet and radio as well as on TV thanks to their efforts”.
