Home Fire Campaign

Greater Carolinas Home Fire Campaign

The Home Fire Campaign helps save lives by installing free smoke alarms in homes that don't have them, and by educating people about home fire safety.

Do You Need a Smoke Alarm?

If you cannot afford to purchase smoke alarms or are physically unable to install a smoke alarm, the Red Cross may be able to help.

Just One Day of Your Life Can Change Someone Else’s Forever

(Para español, visite ActivaTuAlarma.org)

Home fires claim seven lives every day, but having working smoke alarms can cut the risk of death by half.

That’s why the American Red Cross is rallying volunteers to install 50,000 free smoke alarms nationwide, as part of our Sound the Alarm events.

This spring we’ll:

Install free smoke alarms and share safety information in at-risk communities where it’s safe to do so
Fundraise to help families prepare for, respond to and recover from home fires

Join us for a rewarding day at a Sound the Alarm event near you and invite others to fundraise or simply donate to help save lives.
