Do1Thing.Com's Goal for October: Make sure your family is able to safely meet its basic needs during an electrical outage.
Below is a list of things the Do1Thing team recommends you can do to achieve your goal this month.
Choose at least one, and complete it!
- Have flashlights ready in an easily accessible place and check batteries in flashlights and radios.
- Acquire and learn how to safely use a portable generator.
- Create a power outage plan and decide what you can do before, during and after a power outage to minimize the effect on your household.
Visit this month’s Do 1 Thing topic page for fact sheets, videos and additional resources on ensuring your family gets the correct emergency information.
