American Red Cross Home Fire Campaign

You can make a life-saving difference!

The American Red Cross Home Fire Campaign visits at-risk neighborhoods for home fires and installs smoke alarms and provides fire safety education material where needed.

We identify these at-risk neighborhoods based on previous home fires and age of residences and go door-to-door to interview residents and determine whether they have working smoke alarms, or any smoke alarm for that matter, and we install them where needed at no cost to the residents. But we can't do this without the help of volunteers from our community!

This is a nationwide Red Cross initiative to reduce home fire deaths and injuries by 25% over the next 5 years. To date, this initiative has documented 91 lives saved!
