Preparing Your Business for a Disaster
Like setting aside capital for a rainy day, taking some time and resources to prepare for the types of disasters likely to hit your area will make the difference between staying open and being closed for good by an unexpected disaster. Here we outline the basic steps.

Flooding: What You Need to Know
Flash floods are the number one weather-related killer in the US, according to NOAA. An average of 100 people lose their lives in floods annually in the country, with flood damage averaging more than $2 billion per year. If you live in a flood-prone area, protect yourself and your property by learning about preparing for floods.

Fireman's Fund Foundation
In 1953, we established the Fireman's Fund Foundation, an independent charitable organization, to support human needs as well as educational, cultural and community activities. Since then the Foundation has donated more than $33 million to nonprofit organizations.

Preparing Your Household
A major disaster is likely to isolate your family. We recommend you take some time to imagine how this will affect you. Do you have supplies? Do you have a child, a pet, an ailing parent to plan for? Have you put a plan in place? Make sure you think about how to ensure the safety and health of those you care for.

Hurricane Preparation
Hurricane season is an increasingly challenging time for individuals and businesses in hurricane-prone areas. As hurricanes increase in intensity due to global weather conditions, more care is called for in preparing for a hurricane. Read about tips on hurricane preparedness and recovery.

Landslides and Mudslides
You can prevent property loss and damage by understanding the causes of landslides and mudslides, and knowing the steps you should take to protect your home and business from them.
|
|
|
Pandemics
Recent news reports about bird flu cases appearing around the globe have sparked national awareness of the possibility of a pandemic in the United States. Unlike other disasters that strike infrastructure or technology, pandemics primarily take a human toll.

|
|
Tornadoes
Understanding how to recognize warning signs, creating a response plan, and assembling a disaster supply kit can together help you protect yourself and others in the event of a tornado.
|
|
|
| Preparing for a Wildfire |
While only the largest make national headlines, over 100,000 wildfires occur every year. Wildfires strike quickly and without warning. You can reduce your risk by preparing now. As part of our HeritageSM program, Fireman's Fund has sponsored a wildfire safety guide (pdf).
