BINKY PATROL 2 1/2 INCH ROUND PINS – In quantities of 1000. We have the artwork, we just need someone to make the buttons that we give out to new chapter leaders, event volunteers and students who participate. Grocery store clerks even find room on their uniforms to wear them and generate interest. It has proven to be one of our best advertising tools. It opens the door for conversation and suddenly we have another volunteer.


SPONSOR THE BINKY PATROL MAINFRAME – We are currently using Cox High Speed Service to connect to the Internet. It runs $40/month.
The website is updated an average of 3 times per day and over 100 emails are answered each day. Speed and reliability are key.
HELP WITH PRINTING ITEMS – We can make our print jobs fit into any unused space on your print jobs. We even developed a 3″ x 8″ full-color brochure that goes nicely at the top of many jobs. Next time you order a full color print job and the printer tells you there will be an extra 36 x 4 to be trimmed and thrown away, we can create a brochure 8 x 3 to print on your job at no additional cost to you. THIS IS A HUGE ITEM FOR US and our chapters. It is critical for Binky Patrol to have appealing items to show what we do, mail out or leave behind as we are trying to get more volunteers and sponsors. This is a terrific item to be able to share with our chapters and gives them something spiffy to hand out at events they participate in on behalf of Binky Patrol.
