"Home fires claim the lives of seven people every day in the United States and having a working smoke alarm in your home can help cut that risk by half," said Nicholas Bond, regional chief executive, American Red Cross of Western New York. "That’s why our dedicated volunteers and community partners are working diligently to meet with homeowners throughout the community to encourage them to sign up for this free and lifesaving resource. It’s all part of the "Sound the Alarm" program, a national campaign that educates people about fire safety. You can get a free smoke alarm for your home this spring thanks to the American Red Cross of Western New York.
