What is Sound The Alarm

Home fires claim seven lives every day but having working smoke alarms can cut the risk of death by half. The American Red Cross helps reduce home fire deaths and injuries through Sound the Alarm. Save a Life. This series of home fire safety and smoke alarm installation events takes place throughout the year.  

• Install free smoke alarms
• Share safety information in at-risk communities, and 
• Fundraise to help families prepare for, respond to, and recover from home fires.
