SAFETY FIRST! As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the Red Cross is adapting Sound the Alarm activities to protect the people we serve and our volunteers. Sound the Alarm may look different this year but our lifesaving mission to make families and communities safer from home fire continues.

Event Overview: Every day, home fires claim up to seven lives. Most of us don’t realize we have just two minutes to escape a home fire. But there’s hope: Working smoke alarms can cut the risk of death by half. That’s why American Red Cross volunteers will Sound the Alarm in at-risk communities this spring to educate 100,000 people nationwide about home fire safety through our Home Fire Campaign’s Sound the Alarm in April and May.
Home fires haven’t stopped during COVID-19. Through targeted outreach, we’re working with community partners to connect with families and educate kids online about fire safety. We’ll help families create an escape plan to practice their 2-minute drill and partner with fire departments to install smoke alarms by appointment where it’s safe to do so.
