Well, this Saturday, January 15th from 9-2 you can join fellow Red Crossers along with volunteers from Hope Worldwide in distributing vital fire safety information.

Together We Prepare events are always a blast. It’s a chance to meet new friends, enjoy the fresh air and strengthen your community.

Volunteers will canvass door-to-door throughout SE Portland, talk with residents and leave behind comfort kits to help them begin creating a disaster kit. They’ll also be distributing information about smoke alarms, creating a household fire escape plan and tips for cooking and heating a home safely this winter.

If you’re in the know, you’re already aware that home fires are the most prevalent local disaster threat.

Celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. this weekend by providing others with life saving information.

If you are interested in helping with this project, please call or email Lauren Woodward: 503-528-5657 or woodwardl@oregonredcross.org

Together We Prepare!
