Be Red Cross Ready

What does it mean to Be Red Cross Ready? It means that you have taken the steps to be prepared for emergencies and disasters. How? It’s easy; just get a kit, make a plan and be informed.

Chances are that you know what kind of disasters happen in your community, you know what you would do in an emergency and you have some of the items you need to build a kit. We want you to take this one step further and get organized and mobilize. Put your plan on paper and talk about it with your family or friends. Gather those items you need for your kit and put them in an easy-to-carry container. Make sure you stay informed about what can happen in your community.

Taking these actions now not only help you Be Red Cross Ready, but it makes our community, as a whole, better prepared for what ever comes our way.
