Did you know that the American Red Cross responds to a disaster every 8 minutes, and the vast majority of these are home fires? Sadly, every day seven people die from home fires, most in homes that lack working smoke alarms, with children and the elderly disproportionately killed. That’s why the Red Cross launched this campaign in 2014. Since then, volunteers and partners have made over 300,000 households safer. Now we’re on the cusp of something big, and we need your help.

You can join this growing movement. Invite your friends and family too. Together, we can Sound the Alarm about fire safety and help save lives. If you have any questions about Sound the Alarm - or any of the volunteer opportunities with the Red Cross - please email Ned Bloom, Volunteer Services at Ned.Bloom@redcross.org or call 484-403-4721.

Thank you.
