> October is Fire Safety Month. According to a recent poll by the Red Cross, 4 out of 5 Americans are unaware that home fires are the most common disaster in the United States, and only 26 percent of families have actually developed and practiced a home fire escape plan. Since fires kill more Americans each year than all natural disasters combined, the Red Cross urges families to develop a fire escape plan, build a disaster kit, and become informed about fire prevention and safety. Take action today and protect your home and family with important fire safety tips at www.sdarc.org .
