IABPFF Launching No Child Left Alone Fire Safety and Awareness Campaign During Fire Prevention Week, October 3-9, 2010
Campaign targets parents and caregivers of African-American and Spanish-speaking children
The International Association of Black Professional Fire Fighters (IABPFF) is preparing to launch the No Child Left Alone fire safety and awareness campaign in time for Fire Prevention Week. The campaign focuses on informing parents and caregivers of children about the perils of leaving children alone at home, as well as providing life-saving information to make their children “fire-safe.” According to reports from the U.S. Fire Administration and the National Fire Protection Association, African-American children comprise a large and disproportionate share of total fire deaths nationwide. The No Child Left Alone campaign will offer – at no cost – an educational video, brochure and poster for IABPFF members and the general public. Orders for the free campaign materials should be placed by September 1st for delivery in time for Fire Prevention Week. For more information about the campaign and how to order campaign materials,
