  • 3 people are interested

The Fayetteville Fire Department and the Red Cross are holding a Sound the Alarm. Save a Life. home fire safety and smoke alarm installation event on May 4th from 8:30-4. Red Cross volunteers and local partners will be canvassing neighborhoods, installing free smoke alarms, replacing batteries in existing alarms and helping families create escape plans. Please help us Sound the Alarm by volunteering to install smoke alarms in our community, make a financial contribution, or take steps to protect your own family from home fires. The Red Cross responds to nearly 64,000 disasters a year, the majority of which are home fires. Working smoke alarms in a home cut the risk of death by half, and having an escape plan further improves the odds of survival. The Red Cross wants to end these tragedies and save lives and this is why the organization launched the Home Fire Campaign in 2014. Please join this important effort. Together, we can Sound the Alarm about fire safety and help save lives.

Learn more about Sound the Alarm. Save a Life. at www.soundthealarm.org We are asking for pre-registration of participants if possible but you can sign up the day of the event too. Training, breakfast and lunch will be provided on the day.
