Hello,
Nashville Area Volunteers!
Many of you
have taken part in the American Red Cross Home Fire Campaign, installing smoke
alarms in homes around Nashville and educating people on the importance of
having an escape plan in case of a home fire. On April 21st, we are taking our
efforts to the next level as we Sound the
Alarm and install 1,000 smoke alarms in East Nashville homes – in
just one day!
We need YOU to help Sound the Alarm and Save Lives on April
21st. The event will take place from
8:00 AM – 1:00 PM beginning at the Nashville Area Chapter at 2201 Charlotte
Avenue. Please register to volunteer by
visiting www.redcross.org/stanashville. You are encouraged to also register friends, family and coworkers to
volunteer for this exciting event.
Across the country, the
Campaign is making a difference. As of March 1st, the Red Cross and our
partners across the country have saved at least 381 lives, reached 1,042,964
youth through youth preparedness programs, and installed over 1.1 million free
smoke alarms since the Campaign began in 2014. Here in Tennessee, the Red Cross
has installed over 25,000 free smoke alarms in homes and saved 11 documented
lives since July 1st, 2014.
I
look forward to seeing you on April 21st as we Sound the Alarm in Nashville.
If you are unable to volunteer for this event, please consider making a financial
contribution by visiting www.crowdrise.com/STANashville.
I look
forward to joining you in saving lives on April 21st!
