Today we had the opportunity to visit Deer Meadow Primary School to teach students about fire and severe weather preparedness.

Students learned important safety skills and helped put together their own disaster preparedness bags to take home.
We are proud to help educate and prepare the next generation on how to stay safe in emergency situations.

A special thank you to our generous sponsors for making this project possible:

-POET

Last Wednesday, POET presented us with a generous $250 sponsorship.

This sponsorship helped fund our disaster preparedness bags for the second graders at Deer Meadow Primary School, which we will be delivering when we visit the school on Friday the 20th. We truly appreciate their willingness to support our efforts and help us make a positive impact in our community. Thank you, POET 🎉!

This morning's red moon feels extra meaningful. 🌕❤️

As the moon glows in deep crimson, it’s a beautiful reminder of strength, compassion, and unity. The very values we celebrate during Red Cross Month. All across the country, the incredible volunteers of the American Red Cross are stepping up to help families after disasters, support blood drives, assist military members, and provide hope when it’s needed most.

This “red moon” feels like nature’s quiet tribute to the lifesaving work happening every single day. ❤️

Let it inspire us to look out for one another, lend a hand, donate blood, volunteer, or simply spread kindness. Together, we can be the light in someone’s darkest night.
