Photo of the Day: Helping families to be ready

Next week is Emergency Preparedness Week – an awareness week to encourage Canadians to be prepared for disasters where they live.

Since we’re super keeners (it’s never too early to be prepared!), we’re getting a jump start by hosting emergency preparedness workshops for momstown members this week. We’re hosting five workshops in total – three in Ontario and two in Alberta. The above photo is from the workshop we hosted in Oakville, ON last evening.

During the workshops, participating moms will learn about the disaster risks in their community, how to create an emergency plan and how to build an emergency preparedness kit with essential items to enable their family to be self-sufficient for 72-hours in the event of an emergency.
