ORGANIZATION: American Red Cross

Help us Sound the Alarm about fire safety.

Every day 7 people die in home fires. You can help change that.

The American Red Cross is teaming up with fire departments, volunteers and partners to Sound the Alarm with home fire safety and smoke alarm installation events.

All households are eligible for up to three FREE smoke alarms regardless of household size, income or location.

Help us prevent these needless tragedies in Central New York.

Volunteers will be installing FREE smoke alarms and providing fire safety information in the Syracuse area on Saturday, May 4th.
