Dear Bernie and Phyllis:
I am writing to thank you for your support of the Partnership for a Drug-Free America and our local alliance, Massachusetts Partners in Prevention. Your involvement in the recent schedule of anti-drug messages on WHDH-TV is a huge step in our efforts to keep the kids of the greater Boston area drug-free.
Though I now live in Maryland, I was raised in Newton. I have received calls ftom friends and relatives in the Boston area to let me know that they saw the anti-drug spots that you tagged. Your personal endorsement, by appearing on camera at the front of the ads is appreciated.
As I am sure you know, a toll-free phone number appears at the end of the commercials to provide a resource for those in crisis or folks who are requesting information. Several people have actually called the toll-free number to voice their appreciation of Bernie and Phyl’s commitment to airing these messages.
It has been a pleasure working with Suzanne Hassett at Channel 7. She did an excellent job in ensuring significant exposure for your messages. Together, Bernie and Phyl’s, WHDH-TV, the Massachusetts Partners in Prevention and the Partnership for a Drug-Free America are making a difference.
Sincerely,
Steve Cline
Deputy Director Market Management
