Project "Smoke Alarm Give Away" a success!


On April 25th several members of the San Jose Fire Department, Los Bomberos of Northern California, and the Girl Scouts of America teamed up to distribute approximately 200 smoke alarms. A properly installed and working smoke alarm is the single most important way to alert residents of a potential fire. This volunteer team walked four Mobile Home parks door to door and talked to residents about fire safety and the importance of having smoke alarms installed in their home. In addition to the smoke alarm give away several alarms were installed in mobile homes where the occupants needed help. This volunteer effort has provided multiple families a life saving tool. Their lending hand has made a difference and can mean a life saved, keeping a family intact, and a community safe. Great Job!
