The Minority Initiative Sub-Recipient Grant Office (MISRGO) at the
University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (UAPB) and Stamp Out Smoking (SOS) has successfully completed a public education initiative to encourage Hispanic men
to quit smoking by giving away a sweepstakes package for four to a soccer game
in Dallas, Texas. The initiative was
entitled “Be the best man you can be, for you and your family! Smoke-free!”
MISRGO/UAPB
and SOS in partnership with Univision Arkansas announced the Grand Prize Winner Friday, July 12, on-the-air.
Mr. Alejandro Garcia and his family won four tickets to a soccer game in
Dallas, Texas this fall; a one night stay in a Dallas hotel; and a $100 gas
card.
Monica: Mr. Alejandro, why did you decide to call the hotline for this promotion?
Alejandro: Well, first and foremost, to quit smoking, because I smoke.
Monica: Why do you want to quit?
Alejandro: First, for my health and also for my family to be healthy.
Monica: Does your family like that you smoke?
Alejandro: My wife says it smells bad. Laughter.
Monica: There is also a law, Act 811, that says you can't smoke in the car with children under the age of 14.
Alejandro: I didn't know that, but now I do.
Monica: So what are you going to do to help you quit smoking?
Alejandro: I'm not going to carry cigarettes with me; I'm going to avoid areas where people are smoking; and I'm going to use patches to help me quit.
Monica: How do you feel about winning the trip?
Alejandro: Happy! My family is excited too.
Monica: Is there anything you would like to say to our audience.
Alejandro: Nothing more than let's quit smoking for the health of our community.
