Contrary to what many of my friends think….I actually like to see more and more companies adding preparedness items like the ones we sell to their sites. As first responders ourselves….my partners and I started this business because we carry about getting people better prepared and we want to help change the culture of preparedness in this country. We recognize that together we can make a difference. The easier we make it for consumers and business owners to get the information and supplies they need…the better off we will all be.
Emergency preparedness is an individual responsibility but it provides many benefits to the masses. Taking some time to make a preparedness plan, get some survival supplies and learn about the types of disasters and emergencies that can happen in your area will not only make you and your loved one safer….it will also benefit your community. Below are just a few of the ways…
1. You become your own first responder which allows rescue personnel to focus on the more critical
2. You can assist your neighbors and others in your community
3. You reduce the run on supplies that occurs when a disaster kits
4. You help reduce panic and disorder
Decide now to at least take some of the basic steps to better overall preparedness. I can virtually guarantee you that you will feel better by no longer procrastinating and it will make the next steps much easier.
Until next time…stay safe and be prepared.
