We spring forward this weekend! Check your smoke alarms! Redcross.org for amazing tips.

🕑🕑 Daylight saving time begins on March 10 and we encourage you to test your smoke alarms as you turn your clocks forward to make sure the devices are working.

Working smoke alarms cut the risk of dying in a home fire in half as you only have about two minutes to get out. Every second counts when there’s a home fire and the sooner an alarm alerts you to a fire, the sooner you can get to a safer place. When you turn your clocks forward this weekend, test your smoke alarms too to help prevent a tragedy in your home.

Visit redcross.org/fire for more information, including an escape plan to create and practice with your family, or download the free Red Cross Emergency app by searching “American Red Cross” in app stores.

Sound the Alarm is a great program!!

👏 Thank you to this mighty team of Red Cross volunteers who spent their Saturday traveling to homes around Chicago installing free smoke alarms. Your time made over 60 people safer from home fires. 💗

Home fires claim seven lives every day, but having working smoke alarms can cut the risk of death by half. That’s why the American Red Cross is rallying volunteers to install free smoke alarms nationwide, as part of our Sound the Alarm events.

⏰ Join us for a rewarding day at a Sound the Alarm event near you. Sign up at RedCross.org/Volunteer.
