Don't get caught off guard -
Make sure your home has an Emergency Preparedness Kit



All this month, Delmarva Broadcasting Company is helping you get Red Cross Resilient. Disasters and emergencies can happen at any time, often with very little warning. Keep your family safe with these quick tips:
  • Make an emergency kit with basic supplies ready in case of an emergency.
  • Know what emergencies and natural disasters are most likely to happen in our area
  • Attend a Red Cross class for emergency preparedness or learn critical life-saving skills.
  • Figure out an evacuation plan with your family.
One of the most important items to have in an emergency kit is a battery operated radio. In a prolonged power outage, cell service goes away in a few days. Radio can provide crucial information during a blackout. Listen to your favorite Delmarva Broadcasting Company radio station for details on how you can win a Red Cross Resilient Emergency Kit, including a compact, battery-operated radio (full kit contents are further down this page).
