Our agency already has a verbal policy to refuse any tobacco company sponsorship and funding. Why do we need a written policy?
A written policy that has been debated and enacted by a board of directors has a far greater impact than a verbal policy that can neither be seen nor modeled. A written policy will withstand changes in the agency’s board and staff. A written policy ensures that the organization, its members and staff will uphold their stand against corporate gifts, financial contributions, advertising and event sponsorship by tobacco companies.
