Thanks to all who joined us to kick off Prepare the Town: Brownsville! Our volunteers were in full force to help teach people about hands-only CPR, how to get a free smoke alarm through our Home Fire Campaign, and what steps you can take to be ready for disasters. Our preparedness team will be in the Brownsville community throughout the month of July to help people get ready for emergencies, such as home fires, before they happen.
