But, you're on the right track: Do something other teams will appreciate.
You don't nee much of a budget (if any). Safety glasses are expensive. Little hand-out brochures are frequently places on a bench and never looked at.
Posters of "they're not forehead protectors" or something like that might get some notice.
Actually practicing safety in the pits with a vengeance would be even more impressive. Why not make a few posters, and then volunteer to be the safety captain? Give a short talk to the team about good safety in the pits, then stand around and enforce it with an iron fist. Or an aluminum one.
How often I see teams doing something that'll get them hurt. I always stop and tell them, usually they listen. In our own pits, I'm brutal, but in 2 years, three regionalks and a chanpionship our wrst injury was one cut, almost too small for a band-aid. (Naturally, we put him in a full-body cast)
