3 Ways to Increase Your Community Presence this Holiday Season

Community outreach is highly important to not only fire departments, but every company and non-profit organization. It builds credibility, increases social presence and increases the overall goal your department has (in this case, decrease fires and injuries).

As you know, winter is coming! With winter brings an increase in home fires due to home heating, candles and more. Raise awareness and show that your community can rely on your department during the winter season by participating in an event or two! Below are some examples of how your department can get involved this holiday season:

Install Free Carbon Monoxide Detectors

Fireplaces, stoves and home heating are several ways on how CO fumes can build up during the winter months. Instead of handing out free smoke detectors (like the American Red Cross “Sound the Alarm” event), hand out free carbon monoxide detectors! Come up with a catchy name, set aside a weekend and visit households with volunteers to install detectors. Families with young children and the elderly would especially benefit from an event like this as they are more likely to get sick from CO.

Be Involved in New Year’s Eve Party

If your community has an end of the year, New Year’s Eve party or event where fireworks are involved, be present! Fireworks always brings in the crowds, and they also happen to be a fire hazard. Being trained professionals, your fire department would add a sense of safety at the event. Your department could even host in a barbecue and ask for donations.

Join the Holiday Parade lineup

Does your community host a holiday parade? Get involved! Parades are a great way to become more engaged with your community while promoting fire safety.

Whether this list applies to you or not, one thing is certain: community involvement, even a small amount, is extremely important. As the U.S. Fire Administration states, visibility is crucial not only for department growth, but also for its survival. 

As always, if you need additional resources or handouts for any upcoming community holiday events you plan to be a part of, we want to help! We have lots of holiday, candle and carbon monoxide products to choose from:

As always, if you have any questions or need advice feel free to call us at (877) 329-0575!

How to Design a Fire Safety Campaign for Seniors

Fire Safety and Prevention Products to Teach Fire Safety all Year Long!

Deciding to launch a fire safety awareness campaign is a big step –
Congratulations, on choosing to keep your community informed and aware on the importance of fire safety!

As you know, most fires are preventable and fire prevention education helps protect families, homes and possessions from the destructive force of fire. Adults 65 and older are more likely to die, or be hurt in a fire. Making sure to include seniors and their caregivers in your fire prevention education plans will help seniors plan and prepare for fire.

Senior citizens are important members of your community and should be included in your fire safety and prevention campaign

1. Senior citizens are twice as likely to be hurt or injured in a fire. Be sure to explain the heightened risks and to help create a prevention plan to avoid accidents and help them prepare to safely escape their home.

2. Have an event at a local hall, your fire station, or at senior community center. Focus on smoke alarm safety, accident prevention, and senior fire safety. Use bold presentation materials, with easy-to-read graphics and larger print to help everyone in the audience be included.

3. Have a safe cooking demonstration and provide information on burn prevention and fire safety. Involve your audience! Make a quiz or a game about common fire safety hazards and how you can prevent and prepare for fire.

4. Give them something to remember – Safety tools to help seniors prevent fire is a great way to help spread your safety message. Oven mittspot holders and oven sticks are great tools to help prevent burns and scalds. Reminder magnetsmagnifiers, and informational pamphlets can help seniors always be aware of the importance of fire safety.

5. Help them be prepared – Seniors often have medical needs that emergency services should be aware of. Having medical alert information readily available can help save time during an emergency event. Products like Med+Alert Magnets and Pill holders are great products to help your seniors, and your department with their medical needs.

How to Design a Fire Safety Campaign For Children

Fire Safety and Prevention Products to Teach Fire Safety all Year Long! 

Deciding to launch a fire safety awareness campaign is a big step – Congratulations, on choosing to keep your community informed and aware on the importance of fire safety!

As you know, most fires are preventable and fire prevention education helps protect families, homes and possessions from the destructive force of fire. Creating a fire safety and prevention campaign that helps inform every member of your community is the best way to make sure your fire safety message is heard. In this series of emails we will discuss who you should market too, how you should do it, and where to get funding to help your events. 

Children should be your #1 focus when starting a fire safety and prevention campaign

1. Most fires occur at home. Starting fire safety education early allows children to learn about fire risks, safety and prevention. Then, they bring the message home to the rest of the family. 

2. Children learn well with active presentations and play based learning. Get the children involved in your presentation. Active partcipation will help them remember your message. Some examples include: 

  • Stop, Drop, & Roll exercises
  • Safe Cooking Demonstrations 
  • Safe Escape Plans and creating a fire evacuation plan 
  • Encourage them to participate in smoke alarm checks and fire drills at home
  • Use colorful presentations materials, banners and displays to help get your message noticed and keep their attention.

3. Make learning fun! Coloring and Activity Books are a great way to help children learn about fire safety and prevention. A combination of coloring pages, facts, and games help children learn and let them have fun.

4. Give them something to remember – Fire Hats! Every child wants to be a Junior Firefighter, having fire hats with your stations name and shield ready to hand out is a great way to help keep fire safety on the front of their minds, and help promote your station. 

Stay Tuned! 
Our next post focuses on Senior Fire Safety Presentations. 

Need help creating your next event? We have research based coloring books, fire hats, presentation displays, stickers and more to help you stand out and achieve your fire safety and awareness goals.
