Cruz Roja Americana - Red Cross is Spanish

 

A disaster can strike quickly and without warning. It can force you to evacuate your neighborhood or confine you to your home. What would you do if basic services--water, gas, electricity or telephones--were cut off? Local officials and relief workers will be on the scene after a disaster, but they cannot reach everyone right away. Therefore, the best way to make your family and your home safer is to be prepared before disaster strikes.

The American Red Cross can help every person prepare for emergencies and make their communities safer. This is the goal of Be Red Cross Ready.

 

To schedule a disaster preparedness presenter come to your home, company, or organization, please call Ronnie Tella at 203-363-1041, ext. 16.  All disaster preparedness presentations are free of charge.
