Help Mikey Out – from HomeFireDrill.org
The following link is from an insurance company. The information provided is very good basic fire safety information for everyone. There are also a number of links at the bottom of their page, some that we have listed above, that can be used by your family for emergency planning and also help you teach your children about fire safety in a home environment. We were made aware of this link from Lizzie and her mother from California who found our site while working on a school project on home fire safety. We appreciate her work on this project, as fires in the home are the most deadly type of fire in the nation.
