Sound The Alarm, 2022

Home fires are the nation’s most frequent disaster, claiming 7 lives every day.  But having working smoke alarms can cut the risk of death by half.  That’s why we’re rallying 14,000 volunteers to install 50,000 free smoke alarms nationwide in at-risk communities.  Together with volunteers, fire departments and partners we’ve helped save more than 1,200 lives.
