JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Paul Davis Restoration will be volunteering for “Sound the Alarm,” an American Red Cross emblematic national movement taking place each spring, to install free smoke alarms in neighborhood homes. These events are part of the Home Fire Campaign, founded in 2014 by the Red Cross to respond to the shocking and heart-breaking fact that every day, seven people die in home fires, most often in homes without working smoke alarms.
Paul Davis Restoration, a nationwide network of nearly 350 franchises, headquartered in Jacksonville, FL, pledged $500,000 to the American Red Cross Annual Disaster Giving Program (ADGP) in January of this year. This donation helps ensure the organization is prepared to meet the needs of people affected by disasters big and small across the U.S.
It’s a shocking fact that every day, seven people die in home fires, most often in homes without working smoke alarms.
Randall Minor, an Estimator at the Paul Davis of North Florida location, also took part in an event. “Spreading awareness about fire safety with the Red Cross was a very meaningful and rewarding experience for me. As someone who sees fire damage on a regular basis, I can tell you that the devastation caused by a fire can ruin more than just someone’s property,” added Minor.
“Not everyone is fortunate enough to live in a home with properly installed, functional smoke detectors,” said Barry A’Hearn, Emergency Recovery Coordinator of Paul Davis of the Iowa-Corridor. In my position I see too often how destructive home fires can be; we try help make sure the destruction is limited to property damage and not life and limb.”
