Are you prepared for Home Fire Emergency

The below information is taken from an email received from the American Red Cross.  Click on the words in red below for a link to the survey.

  • You may not know it, but it’s the biggest disaster threat to people in this country.
  • It happens quickly, devastating lives and homes in just minutes.
  • It’s not always in the news, but it’s happening right now  somewhere in the country.  On average, 7 people die every day from a home fire. 
  • Disastrous home fires leave families with nowhere to go and no one to turn to. 
  • An astonishing 93% of all disasters the American Red Cross responds to are home fires, and unlike floods, hurricanes, tornadoes and other natural disasters, home fires can be preventable.
  • More importantly, knowing about fire safety and prevention can save lives. 
  • How can we help you be more prepared in the face of a home fire emergency?
