Draft Letter for PSA Directors (Radio Stations)

Dear [PSA Director]:

During the week of Labor Day, the [Name of Chapter] celebrates National Payroll Week (NPW), which recognizes the valuable contributions America’s workers and payroll professionals make everyday in our community.

America’s workers contribute to the strength of our nation’s economy through payroll deductions that support vital government programs, such as Social Security and Medicare. Payroll professionals across the country collect, contribute, and report an estimated $2.08 trillion per year – that’s 68 percent of the annual revenue of the U.S. Treasury. Locally, countless payroll professionals work hard to ensure that [name of city] residents are paid accurately and on time.

To bring NPW to the attention of all workers, we offer valuable tools to help everyone get the most out of each paycheck. We ask for your help publicizing this event to the community.

Attached are public service announcements highlighting NPW activities. We greatly appreciate you sharing this information on-air, as well as on your station’s website. Chapter officers and local payroll professionals are available for call-in interviews to share information about the event, and we also have valuable NPW gifts to offer as giveaway items to your audience.

Please let me know if you would like more information about National Payroll Week and our local chapter’s efforts. Contact me at your earliest convenience at [PHONE NUMBER] or via e-mail at [EMAIL Address]. Thank you for your support.

Best regards,
