Just One Day of Your Life Can Change Someone Else's Forever
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 free smoke alarms, as part of our nationwide Sound the Alarm events.
The Central & Southern Ohio region is hosting Sound the Alarm events from April 6 - April 29. Join us for a rewarding day at a Sound the Alarm event near you!
