High-Volume Giveaways for Community Events, School Visits and Open Houses

A police department or fire department that runs community events, school visits and open houses throughout the year needs a shelf of giveaways deep enough to keep every event stocked without reordering one item at a time. The right mix covers kids at a school assembly, families at a parade and seniors at a safety fair.

This page carries the high-volume giveaway shelf, from wristbands, lollipops and magnets to pencils, tattoos, junior badges, coloring books, stadium cups, whistles, crayons, erasers and stickers. Foremost Promotions sends free samples to police departments and fire departments so buyers can compare giveaways before placing an order.

Common Questions About High-Volume Giveaways

What are good high-volume giveaway ideas for community events?
Wristbands, lollipops, pencils, tattoos, junior badges and coloring books are the items departments reorder most for community events and school visits. Junior badges and lollipops draw kids to the table. Coloring books go home and keep the safety message alive. Tattoos and wristbands are fast handouts for a parade route or busy event. Pick several and request free samples so the community relations officer can build the giveaway kit for the year.

Do these items work for both police and fire departments?
Yes. Most items on this page are theme-neutral and work for any public safety department. Junior badges come in police, fire and EMS styles so each agency matches its identity. Coloring books are also available in department-specific themes.

Can items be imprinted with the department name?
Most items accept a custom imprint with the department name, badge art or a safety message. Stock items ship without an imprint. Each product page notes whether the item is stock or custom.

Can the department get samples before placing a large order?
Yes, and you do not have to pick just one item. Add several giveaways to the sample basket from any product page, or call 800.431.3473. Samples arrive organized and packaged so the community relations officer can build the giveaway kit for the full event calendar. Free samples ship to a department or agency address.

How far ahead should we order for the year?
Custom imprinted items need production time, so most departments order several weeks before their first event. Stock items ship sooner. Call 800.431.3473 with your event schedule and the team can confirm the timeline.
